28 <p><b>xdock
</b> is a software that emulates the Window Maker docks,
29 with the following differences:
</p>
31 <li><b>runs in any window manager
</b>
32 <li><b>client/server
</b> - it works in a client/server way,
33 where a server sits in the right side of the screen, and the docks
34 are clients that connect to that server;
35 <li><b>easy to program
</b> - programming the Window Maker docks was
36 a hard job. But xdock provides a
<a href=
"api.html">API
</a> that
37 makes programming much easier! (check also the
38 <a href=
"tutorial.html">tutoral
</a>).
47 <p><b>Version
0.2.0</b> is released! A few changes:
</p>
49 <li>The API now support events (mouse clicks).
50 <li>Docks now can be moved and reordered with the mouse.
51 <li>Two new docks were added:
<b>xdevent
</b> (for the tutorial) and
<b>xdchess
</b>, a chess game dock applet.
55 <p>The website was mistakenly informing that you'd need
<b>Imlib2
</b>,
56 when what you actually need is
<a href=
"http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/sources/imlib/">Imlib1
</a>.
59 <p>Initial version released.
</p>
64 <p>Start the server with:
</p>
65 <ul><pre>xdockserver
&</pre></ul>
66 <p>then start a client (such as
<i>xdmemory
</i>) with:
</p>
67 <ul><pre>xdmemory
&</pre></ul>
71 <h2>Future plans:
</h2>
73 <li>new widgets on the API
74 <li>new docks to be included in the default distribution
75 <li>other language bindings (such as Ruby, Python, etc)
76 <li>Win32 and FreeBSD support
