It's just a matter of learning by example. Anytime I find that an installed program is actually a script, I tear it apart to see how it works. Most of the tricky bits in those scripts were what I got from fbsetbg. Now I guess I'm going to have to finally break down and read "Dive Into Python" to see how to handle reading from plain text files. The little Python I know, came from fixing/enhancing desklets from Adesklets. (and a lot of that was trial and error )
