PyGTK rsync GUI

Why I have created this

• gtkrsync seemed a bit buggy,
• I needed some features absent in gtkrsync,
• I wanted to learn something new in Python.

Features

• Accepts same arguments as rsync does,
• Can wait for a specified period of time after rsync exits with 0,
• ... or after a non-zero exit code (specified separately),
• GTK runs in a different thread than the one reading rsync's output,
• Errors saved in a self-expanding textbox.

How it's made

• It just runs a child process of rsync,
• It forces rsync to always run at least with -v and --progress arguments,
• Progress is read from rsync's output,
  • "to-check" part for total progress,
  • lines starting with '\r' for per-file progress.
