It is much simpler than the Implode code, but I still have some  
problems. Here is what I have in activity.py:

class Activity(olpcgames.PyGameActivity):
     """Your Sugar activity"""

     game_name = 'run'
     game_title = _('Game Of Life')
     game_size = None

     def __init__(self,handle):
         activity.Activity.__init__(self, handle)
         mytoolbox = gtk.Toolbar()
         helpbut = ToolButton('activity')#Stock help icon
         helpbut.set_tooltip(_("Foo!"))
         helpbut.connect('clicked', self.help_button_pressed)
         mytoolbox.insert(helpbut, -1)
         helpbut.show()
         self.set_toolbox(mytoolbox)
         mytoolbox.show()

     def help_button_pressed(self, button):
         None


This makes a blank window with a toolbar, the toolbar does indeed have  
a single icon with a picture of a hammer on it (the contents of  
activity.svg). But, nothing else happens! It seems that by overriding  
__init__ I've broken whatever magic started up Pygame and ran the code  
in run.py.
