[pygtk] A timer to refresh my app controls?

[Alexandre González]

Really, my backend is a console player, so, with commands, I can get the
state, for example: mocp -Q %state gets the pause/stop/playing state of the
"backend".

I can't send signal to my python program because I amn't the developer of
the console player, I go to try the timeout_add.

Thanks to all!
