Embedding python into PyQt

[Grzegorz Dostatni]

I am going to reply to my own message. That way, if someone else looks for
something similar - it'll be in the archives.

PyCute is part of a PyQwt project (available at sourceforge). It does
exactly what I want. I am using the PyCute3.py.

There is a small snag if you want to use it with a Qt designer. I solved
it by creating the following file: PyCute.py
---------------------------------------------------------
import PyCute3


class PyCute(PyCute3.PyCute):
    def __init__(self, parent, name):
        PyCute3.PyCute.__init__(self, parent=parent)
---------------------------------------------------------

After having that and the PyCute3.py in the same directory, just add a
custom widget to designer as class PyCute. and include the line:

Python:from PyCute import PyCute

in the comment field of the form settings.
