Remove GTK dependencies from download.py #176

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago
What new or enhanced feature are you proposing?
Relocating GTK dependencies to more specialized modules to allow download.py to 
operate without PyGTK.

What goal would this enhancement help you achieve?
If this were implemented, download.py could be run headless.
For example, a slow headless system with lots of storage space could hold a 
local mirror of map data to be mounted over NFS or the like.
I achieved this by modifying the source, but it made the graphical application 
unusable and was really just a dirty hack to try to get it to run. It seemed to 
download Google street maps just fine without GTK.

In windows after installing just Pyhton I get:

C:\Documents and Settings\Win XP\Desktop\gmapcatcher>download.py

well preliminary repairs have now been tidied up; a more complete overhaul may 
need to await a more pressing need for it :-)
