[tomboy-list] CLI interface to Tomboy

[Doug Johnston]

Looks like wonderful work! I am the author of the tomboycli project on
google code and had no idea that there was an issue posted until just
now (apparently google doesn't send email?). You are quite right that
the code was not very python-y, that was my very first script I ever
wrote in python, and hence was fairly messy. I hope at least it
provided a little motivation to do things better ;) I'll definitely
check out the work you've done in more detail, thanks for bringing it
to our attention!

Best,
Doug
