2 * This is a bug fix release. It changes the global macro definitions
3 for adesklets to compile without problems on FreeBSD 5.x, and it also
4 adds fake root window detection for KDE, thanks to yogi77, from the
8 * This is a bug fix release. It removes calls to some C99 math routines
9 not available in earlier BSD's, make the code more portable. It also
10 adds two new commands to the API for handling the images caching
14 * This is a bug fix and documentation update release. It corrects
15 many small bugs inside the desklets submission process scripts,
16 makes portability changes to the autoconf structure, adds a new demo
17 scripts in test (widget.py), corrects the xwindow_move_window routine
18 for a small placement bugs on the screen (thanks to man1ed from
19 the forum from providing the patch), and finally add a new
20 appendix containing a handy online version of Imlib2 documentation.
23 * This is a bug fix and documentation update release. It improves
24 the desklets submission process by releasing the full check
25 in script used by the maintainer. It also solves a bug
26 with window refresh when using user-defined background image
27 and menus: thanks to ZeroDivide for reporting this.
28 Various updates and correction have also been made to the documentation.
31 * This is a documentation update release, principally aimed
32 at desklets authors. It basically includes a new appendix
33 on how to submit a desklet (including scripted support),
34 and a new subsection on system-wide fonts detection as well.
35 FAQ was also expanded to cover this topic.
38 * This is a documentation update release. Most of the work here
39 was made by Mike Pirnat exilejedi@users.sourceforge.net,
40 who was kind enough to rectify the base author's deficient english
41 by proofreading this manual from cover to cover. Thanks Mike!
42 The FAQ was also slightly expanded, and a new appendix for desklets
46 * This is a new bug fix release. It corrects a bug within
47 the python package that made if not compile on all of
48 Python < 2.4.0. Thanks to nucular, from the adesklets forum,
49 for reporting this. It also corrects another minor mmap
50 related issue in the same package.
53 * This is anew bug fix release. It secures the use of optional
54 adesklets.ConfigFile class by completely changing the way
55 config files are imported, removing a potential security exploit.
56 Thanks to Mike Pirnat <exilejedi@users.sourceforge.net> for
57 sharing his concerns on this issue.
60 * This is a new minor version release. The interpreter now support
61 internationalization - It can now dynamically work with different
62 charsets on platforms supporting iconv (as standardized in UNIX98), and
63 display them in the right fashion. Python package was also extended
64 to include an (optional) generic configuration class, hopefully useful
68 * This is a documentation update release. Documentation was added for
69 python programmers, FAQ was slightly expanded.
72 * This is new bug fix release. It just adds support for interruption
73 of time gates by events. This is a feature absolutely required to make
74 some timed effects possible.
77 * This is a new minor version release. Portability has been a big concern
78 for us since the beginning; with this version, the package compile
79 and run flawlessly on FreeBSD and NetBSD. Events handling has also been
80 internally streamlined, and the python binding was extended to support
81 dynamic modification of caught events (see test/test_events.py).
83 * The interpreter API now expose everything the author wanted,
84 and will probably not be expanded much further; everything is pretty
85 much in place to write any desklet, including animations.
88 * This is a minor bug fix release - it removes a compatibility bug
89 within the GNU history library usage. Thanks to Mike Pirnat
93 * New minor version release. Added support for textual variables
94 (strings substitution, in fact), and execution of timed preregistered
95 sequences of commands to the interpreter (indirect mode of execution);
96 this gives desklets a way to perform fluid animations.
97 For developpers, this version also includes a rewritten dynamically
98 configurable debug interface to the interpreter able
99 to generate complete logs on any session. See Changelog.
102 * Minor bug fix release - update to this version
103 if you could not get package to compile with 0.1.1 or 0.1.2
104 due to error on doc/adesklets.1. Also adds a FAQ to
105 the documentation. See Changelog.
108 * Documentation update release. See Changelog.
111 * Minor bug fix release. See Changelog.
114 * New minor version release. Added preliminary french documentation,
115 support for Windows Manager with fake roots (Xfce4 built-in), and
116 for restarting all desklets.
119 * Minor bug fix release. See Changelog.
122 * Initial release of adesklets. More news coming somewhere
123 in mid-January: going out of the country for the holidays!
124 * Support for interactive use and Python only
125 * Everything major feature is in place: see online help.
