I'm using the libnotify library to display a notification in Ubuntu. I would ideally like to display a battery of some sort (since my app is a battery meter).
The types of icons I can use are:
a URI specifying the icon file name (e.g. file://path/to/my-icon.png)
a 'stock' icon name. One that would succeed in a call to gtk_icontheme_lookup() (e.g. 'stock-delete') Note: these are not necessarily normal GTK stock icons - any theme icon will work.
a pixbuf
I would ideally like to use option #2, however I can't find out the names of the available icons. How can I find which icons are available?
You can easily find out using pygtk itself:
>>> import gtk
>>> print "\n".join(name for name in dir(gtk) if name.startswith("STOCK_"))
On my machine, this prints:
