Assign to group ... does nothing

Could you please run Terminator from inside a terminal and see if it produces any python tracebacks at that point, please?

Here it is :

/home/xxxxxx/.themes/ColorBit/gtk-2.0/gtkrc:72: error: unexpected identifier `colorize_scrollbar', expected character `}'
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/terminatorlib/terminatorterm.py", line 1654, in create_group
    window_x, window_y = self.get_window().get_origin()
AttributeError: 'TerminatorTerm' object has no attribute 'get_window'

Best regards

Perfect thanks, it would seem that we're using PyGTK calls that are only in 2.14 or newer, which is why that method is failing on RHEL 5.4.
I've committed a fix to trunk at revision 802, but this seems serious enough that I should probably do another release fairly soon. I'd like to get myself an old distro in a VM so I can test on python 2.4 and an old pygtk (mostly I'm using the latest Ubuntu releases, so I'm on python 2.6 and pygtk 2.16) to catch any others.

Chris,

A while back I created https://code.edge.launchpad.net/~chantra/terminator/python2.12-compat

here is the diff: http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~chantra/terminator/python2.12-compat/revision/778
actually, it should be proposed for merge in trunk through LP.

Basically, what it does is to wrap widget.get_window() into gtk_widget_get_window()

That was meant to fix "Bug #314233: Simultaneous typing in multiple grouped terminals send all the output to one terminal" : https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/terminator/+bug/314233

to make terminator pygtk 2.12 compatible.

There might be some better ways to wrap it, mainly once epic-refactor is sorted out.

It is a same the method did not exist in pygtk 2.12 :)
