Thanks for your help

I take a look to the set_functions() method and I've found the constants as
gtk.gdk.FUNC_CLOSE that allows the window to be closeable. In fact I don't
know how to allow the window to be NOT closeable and it seems that all
functions (minimize, close, move ...) are set by default.

I have found also a function set_deletable that should be adapted to my
needs, but I'm not using the right pygtk version.
