10.18. Changing a Window's background color

Thanks to Gian Mario Tagliaretti on the PyGTK mailing list:

   import pygtk
   pygtk.require('2.0')
   import gtk

   class FirstWin:
       def __init__(self):
           self.win = gtk.Window(gtk.WINDOW_TOPLEVEL)
           color = gtk.gdk.color_parse('#234fdb')
           self.win.modify_bg(gtk.STATE_NORMAL, color)
           #  To change the color again, just modify it again
           self.win.show()

       def main(self):
           gtk.main()

   if __name__ == "__main__":
       first = FirstWin()
       first.main()
