Indeed, the xid wont work under Win32.  Since I am fortunate not to
use windows ;) I did not check the widget under win32.  I'd appreciate
if you could test to see if there is some method/attribute that pygtk
provides under win32 that produces the HWND that MSW provides for the
window.  If it is possible (which I think it should) it should be easy
to fix this bug.

It might be as simple as replacing 

str (self.box.get_window ().xid)
with 
str (self.box.get_window ().hwnd)

but I am not sure.

If you have trouble with getting the HWND of the window could you ask
James Henstridge <james at daa.com.au> about it?

thanks,
