Remembering that I'm not familiar with growl-for-windows, but in the api
docs it looks like there's the possibility to just register callbacks
directly (surely handier?), set custom attributes, and get fine-grained
errors back.
I did say "especially on fd.o": libnotify has a lot of stuff not exposed
through its notify-send, like multiple actions ( "Chat|Ignore"),
possibility for association with specific applications widgets and
systray icons, and support for updating the message of the
notification*. (growl-for-windows doesn't currently do several of those
in the first place as far as I can see (could well be wrong)).
[debian package python-notify has a bunch of examples in
/usr/share/doc/python-notify/examples ]
*
import pynotify
import time
pynotify.init("Countdown")
n = pynotify.Notification("Uh oh","...")
n.show()
for i in range(10,0,-1):
time.sleep(1)
n.update("Uh oh", "%s..." % i)
n.show()
n.update("Oh No!", "<b>BANG</b>")
n.show()
