Add some more functions for GntTree. One point to note is that the key for each row in a tree needs to be a GObject, which, really is quite simple to do in python (examples coming up shortly). There is a wrapper for gpointer, which I am going to remove shortly. I also need to fix the install location. The way to go, I think, is to change the configure script in libgnt/configure.ac. This involves checking for python and doing things of that sort.

then
    cat <<EOF 
This program calls purple API functions using DBus and prints the return value.
If you are not interested in the return value, use purple-send-async.

Usage:

   $0 method-name type1:parameter1 type2:parameter2 ...

This shell script just invokes dbus-send, see man dbus-send for how 
to specify the parameters.  

Examples:

   $0 PurpleAccountsFindConnected string: string:prpl-jabber
   $0 PurpleAccountsGetAll
   $0 PurpleCoreQuit

Use dbus-viewer to get the list of supported functions and their parameters.
