[pygtk] WNCK question

[Magnus Therning]

After discovering wmctrl and EWMH I decided to play around a little with
wnck. Of course I'd like to do it in Python. However I'm having some
problems to get started. I entered the following in ipython running in
a gnome-terminal:

 In [1]: import wnck

 In [2]: scr = wnck.screen_get_default()

 In [3]: scr
 Out[3]: <wnck.Screen object (WnckScreen) at 0xa7b08e3c>

 In [4]: scr.get_windows()
 Out[4]: []

 In [5]: scr.get_active_window()

 In [6]: scr.get_windows_stacked()
 Out[6]: []

 In [7]: scr.get_workspace_count()
 Out[7]: 0

The results are a little surprising to me. I was expecting to find some
windows on the current screen, and I have 8 workspaces. Am I missing
something here?

I have only managed to find the reference docs for libwnck. The only
program I know uses it is devilspie, but it's not exactly ideal for
jumpstarting my plying with wnck...
