Playing with Cairo

Play around with Cairo: Check!

One thing that has been sitting on my TODO list for a very long
time was playing around with Cairo. No longer! Yesterday I spent a
little time on hacking a Cairo based equivalent of KDE’s Filelight (Which
BTW is one of the two programs that KDE has but GNOME really lacks,
the other being KCacheGrind). The
result after two hours is this:

This screenshot shows the development tree of my Syrep tool.

This tool has definitely nicer anti-aliased graphics than
Filelight, doesn’t it? The source code is here: fring.py. Anyone
interested in turning this into a proper GNOME application?
