""" Transparent, irregular edge splash screen with pyGTK and XShape.
Takes a png image with transparent section, creates a window with pyGTK, puts this image in 
there with cairo and then trims the edges with X11 XShape clipping extension.

This file demonstrates a python script which loads a png image of size 800x650 and name base.png
Then it creates a GTK+/Cairo window with opaque settings from the png file and the transparent
portions cut out with a mask. Basic, but works and looks great.

Note: this is a proof of concept file. It works, but it is by no means production ready.
