[pygtk] help with scrollbar

[Christopher Spears]

I have been trying to teach myself PyGTK.  I decided
to create a little GUI with a scrollbar.  Using the
scrollbar, I can select the temperature in degrees
Fahrenheit.  By clicking on the Convert button, the
GUI displays the corresponding degrees Celsius.

I have made a lot of progress, but for some reason,
the thumb on the scrollbar will not move when I click
and drag it.  I asked for help on the Python tutor
mailing list, but there are not a lot of PyGTK experts
on that list.  I have looked over the docs and the
tutorial, too.  Can someone help me out?
