I've made some progress writing a Sugar/Python GUI script with csndsugui.
 
One glitch: I need to pause the script for the user to make some choices before going on. I thought the following code, displaying a button to click before continuing, should do the trick:
 
  cont = win.button(box, "Continue?")
  while cont == 0:
    continue
 
Unfortunately, the script whizzes through this point with nary a hint of pause. All is fine except "no pause." (I've tried multiple variations on the "while" line, to no avail. Win.button is supposed to return either a 0 or a 1.
 
Solutions?

I have the impression that the colour scheme for buttons etc
is locked in sugar. Other art (pictures) etc I think can have their
own colour. Perhaps this is something to ask in the sugar-devel
list. I'll investigate when I get some time.
