  25 ;; This package provides an implementation of the Desktop Notifications
  26 ;; <http://developer.gnome.org/notification-spec/>.
  27
  28 ;; In order to activate this package, you must add the following code
  29 ;; into your .emacs:
  30 ;;
  31 ;;   (require 'notifications)
  32
  33 ;; For proper usage, Emacs must be started in an environment with an
  34 ;; active D-Bus session bus.

 129 Various PARAMS can be set:
 130
 131  :bus            The D-Bus bus, if different from `:session'.
 132  :title          The notification title.
 133  :body           The notification body text.
 134  :app-name       The name of the application sending the notification.
 135                  Default to `notifications-application-name'.
 136  :replaces-id    The notification ID that this notification replaces.
 137  :app-icon       The notification icon.
 138                  Default is `notifications-application-icon'.
 139                  Set to nil if you do not want any icon displayed.
 140  :actions        A list of actions in the form:
 141                    (KEY TITLE KEY TITLE ...)
 142                  where KEY and TITLE are both strings.
 143                  The default action (usually invoked by clicking the
 144                  notification) should have a key named \"default\".
 145                  The title can be anything, though implementations are free
 146                  not to display it.
 147  :timeout        The timeout time in milliseconds since the display
 148                  of the notification at which the notification should
 149                  automatically close.
 150                  If -1, the notification's expiration time is dependent
 151                  on the notification server's settings, and may vary for
 152                  the type of notification.
 153                  If 0, the notification never expires.
 154                  Default value is -1.
 155  :urgency        The urgency level.
 156                  Either `low', `normal' or `critical'.
 157  :action-items   Whether the TITLE of the actions is interpreted as
 158                  a named icon.
 159  :category       The type of notification this is.
 160  :desktop-entry  This specifies the name of the desktop filename representing
 161                  the calling program.
 162  :image-data     This is a raw data image format which describes the width,
 163                  height, rowstride, has alpha, bits per sample, channels and
 164                  image data respectively.
 165  :image-path     This is represented either as a URI (file:// is the
 166                  only URI schema supported right now) or a name
 167                  in a freedesktop.org-compliant icon theme.
 168  :sound-file     The path to a sound file to play when the notification pops up.
 169  :sound-name     A themable named sound from the freedesktop.org sound naming
 170                  specification to play when the notification pops up.
 171                  Similar to icon-name,only for sounds. An example would
 172                  be \"message-new-instant\".
 173  :suppress-sound Causes the server to suppress playing any sounds, if it has
 174                  that ability.
 175  :resident       When set the server will not automatically remove the
 176                  notification when an action has been invoked.
 177  :transient      When set the server will treat the notification as transient
 178                  and by-pass the server's persistence capability, if it
 179                  should exist.
 180  :x              Specifies the X location on the screen that the notification
 181                  should point to.  The \"y\" hint must also be specified.
 182  :y              Specifies the Y location on the screen that the notification
 183                  should point to.  The \"x\" hint must also be specified.
 184  :on-action      Function to call when an action is invoked.
 185                  The notification id and the key of the action are passed
 186                  as arguments to the function.
 187  :on-close       Function to call when the notification has been closed
 188                  by timeout or by the user.
 189                  The function receive the notification id and the closing
 190                  reason as arguments:
 191                    - `expired' if the notification has expired
 192                    - `dismissed' if the notification was dismissed by the user
 193                    - `close-notification' if the notification was closed
 194                      by a call to CloseNotification
 195                    - `undefined' if the notification server hasn't provided
 196                      a reason
 197
 198 Which parameters are accepted by the notification server can be
 199 checked via `notifications-get-capabilities'.
 200
 201 This function returns a notification id, an integer, which can be
 202 used to manipulate the notification item with
 203 `notifications-close-notification' or the `:replaces-id' argument
 204 of another `notifications-notify' call."
