[CoLoCo] CLI or script access to GNOME resources?

[David L. Willson]

Hey, I think that was actually the answer to the question.  Now, a new question:  Assume
that I know several programming or scripting languages, but nothing about GTK and only a
very little about Python.  Where would I start?  Is there a book worth buying or a
website with an awesome introduction?

More questions:  Can I make my programs run from crontab if they're non-interactive? 
Can I use standard I/O (stdin,stdout,stderr)?
