That's a valid reason. I guess pygtk is just a personal preference.Morn76 wrote:Yes, but GTK would be another dependency, while Tkinter comes with Python. Linux has advanced package managers like pacman, so installing dependencies is not a problem, but on Windows and OS X they are quite annoying. And this thing is more geared towards Windows. Because on Linux I can just navigate to a mod folder with Dolphin, press F4, and type 'git pull'.
I may do an upgraded version, but I think I would be using PyQT. And I will keep the more simple, ugly interface around too. :-)

EDIT: Actually, I'm learning to use pygtk so I might actually try converting it ...(maybe)

Could it be done so, that one could change the repo?
Sometimes authors discontinue their stuff and a new modder takes over within his/her own repo.

dgm5555 wrote:Also if you try to clone a GH but the folder already exists, the old 'temp' folder is left behind in the MT-GitSync dir, and causes subsequent errors even if the original folder is deleted (ie the script should delete the temp folder on error, or display a message to enable overwrite).

dgm5555 wrote:OK my next request then is that the tool accesses an online page which stores the names of the mods and can save names of 'unknown' mods, thus everyone can contribute, and if it was really smart, could track rates of downloads. Perhaps it could use/modify the modstore list from the MT menu (though I find MT-gitsync tidier)...
dgm5555 wrote:Also without some sort of auto-merging/listing of unknown mods, a list like the following is impossible to figure out what's new or known, and takes ages to manually compare lists (probably why you don't get many contributors)
dgm5555 wrote:Also can MT-GitSync automatically update itself? The MT-GitSync folder doesn't seem to be listed when I click update all despite being in the mods folder.
