adesklets-0.6.1-8mdv2010.0.i586.rpm

News in 0.6.1:
	* This is a bug fix release. adesklets now compiles without warnings on
	all gcc 4.x releases, while retaining compatibility with all previous
	versions of the GNU C compiler. A new test/timing.py framework was
	also added to help the diagnostic of potential timing issues.

News in 0.6.0:
	* This is a new minor version release. adesklets now includes support
	for writing desklets in Perl: many thanks to Lucas Brutschy 
	<lbrutschy@users.sourceforge.net> for his work!

News in 0.5.1:
	* This is a bug fix release. adesklets now compiles and run on 
	OpenBSD 3.8, automated FIFO cleanup in case of broken session was added
        to the frontend, as well as support of the newest version of e16. 
        The adesklets installer script automated UI fallback was also fixed.

News in 0.5.0:
	* This is new minor version and bug correction release. It extends 
	the documentation and FAQ on many topics, includes many fixes 
	to the autotools scripts (special thanks to Steve Langasek 
	<vorlon@debian.org>), regularises a few exceptions in the 
	interpreter, adds support to WM-specific contextual menu, adds a few 
	use cases scripts under test/, and adds a brand new adesklets installer 
	(adesklets_installer) for automated download and unpacking of desklets.

News in 0.4.12:
	* This is a bug fix release. It corrects an error with the distributed 
	documentation makefile that prevented info files and manual pages from 
	installing right on arbitrary, empty directory trees (thanks to Bart 
	Kreska for the patch). It also add support for nautilus and KDE >=3.4.1, 
	as well as preliminary support for ROX-Filer and xffm-deskview. It 
	should rectify a long-standing issue with some desklets failing to
	complete their initial display. Finally, the documentation FAQ was 
	slightly expanded.

News in 0.4.11:
	* This is a bug fix release. Documentation wize, it brings the 
	french documentation up to speed with the english version 
	(thanks to Martin Kirchgessner martin.kirch@gmail.com for 
	all his work), and take the whole documentation source and 
	html version out of the main package (thanks to this, adesklets 
	is now about 300 KB lighter). Code wize, this version includes 
	many small fixes for various platforms \u2013 FreeBSD 7 should 
	hopefully be supported unpatched, manuals have been added for 
	desklets submission script to please Debian. Yet, the biggest 
	change is probably the inclusion of an optional shell driver 
	to the interpreter, that ease up the administration of adesklets 
	and the quick adaptation of the code to new windows managers.

News in 0.4.10:
	* This is a bug fix release. An unwanted partial new feature made is way 
	into previous release: it caused the contextual menu to stop working 
	the advertised way (the control key needed to be pressed for the menu to
	get fired). This release just revert back the change, and add a 
	configuration-time option, --enable-control-on-context-menu, for
	those who really wants this behavior.

News in 0.4.9:
	* This is a bug fix release. It changes the global macro definitions 
	for adesklets to compile without problems on FreeBSD 6.x, corrects 
	an error with debugging flag stripping from the C compiler, 
	and adds a new demo program about threading.

News in 0.4.8:
	* This is a bug fix release. It changes the global macro definitions 
	for adesklets to compile without problems on FreeBSD 5.x, and it also 
	adds fake root window detection for KDE, thanks to yogi77, from the 
	forum.

News in 0.4.7:
	* This is a bug fix release. It removes calls to some C99 math routines 
	not available in earlier BSD's, make the code more portable. It also 
	adds two new commands to the API for handling the images caching 
	mechanism better.

News in 0.4.6:
	* This is a bug fix and documentation update release. It corrects 
	many small bugs inside the desklets submission process scripts, 
	makes portability changes to the autoconf structure, adds a new demo 
	scripts in test (widget.py), corrects the xwindow_move_window routine 
	for a small placement bugs on the screen (thanks to man1ed from 
	the forum from providing the patch), and finally add a new 
	appendix containing a handy online version of Imlib2 documentation.

News in 0.4.5:
	* This is a bug fix and documentation update release. It improves 
	the desklets submission process by releasing the full check 
	in script used by the maintainer. It also solves a bug 
	with window refresh when using user-defined background image 
	and menus: thanks to ZeroDivide for reporting this. 
	Various updates and correction have also been made to the documentation.

News in 0.4.4:
	* This is a documentation update release, principally aimed 
	at desklets authors. It basically includes a new appendix 
	on how to submit a desklet (including scripted support), 
	and a new subsection on system-wide fonts detection as well. 
	FAQ was also expanded to cover this topic.

News in 0.4.3:
	* This is a documentation update release. Most of the work here 
	was made by Mike Pirnat exilejedi@users.sourceforge.net, 
	who was kind enough to rectify the base author's deficient english 
	by proofreading this manual from cover to cover. Thanks Mike! 
	The FAQ was also slightly expanded, and a new appendix for desklets 
	writer created.

News in 0.4.2:
	* This is a new bug fix release. It corrects a bug within 
	the python package that made if not compile on all of 
	Python <  2.4.0. Thanks to nucular, from the adesklets forum, 
	for reporting this. It also corrects another minor mmap 
	related issue in the same package.

News in 0.4.1:
	* This is anew bug fix release. It secures the use of optional 
	adesklets.ConfigFile class by completely changing the way 
	config files are imported, removing a potential security exploit. 
	Thanks to Mike Pirnat <exilejedi@users.sourceforge.net>  for 
	sharing his concerns on this issue.

News in 0.4.0:
	* This is a new minor version release. The interpreter now support 
	internationalization - It can now dynamically work with different
	charsets on platforms supporting iconv (as standardized in UNIX98), and
	display them in the right fashion. Python package was also extended
	to include an (optional) generic configuration class, hopefully useful
	to desklets authors.

News in 0.3.2:
	* This is a documentation update release. Documentation was added for
	python programmers, FAQ was slightly expanded.

News in 0.3.1:
	* This is new bug fix release. It just adds support for interruption 
	of time gates by events. This is a feature absolutely required to make 
	some timed effects possible.

News in 0.3.0:
	* This is a new minor version release. Portability has been a big concern 
	for us since the beginning; with this version, the package compile 
	and run flawlessly on FreeBSD and NetBSD. Events handling has also been 
	internally streamlined, and the python binding was extended to support 
	dynamic modification of caught events (see test/test_events.py).

	* The interpreter API now expose everything the author wanted, 
	and will probably not be expanded much further; everything is pretty 
	much in place to write any desklet, including animations.

News in 0.2.1:
	* This is a minor bug fix release - it removes a compatibility bug 
	within the GNU history library usage. Thanks to Mike Pirnat 
	for reporting this.

News in 0.2.0:
	* New minor version release. Added support for textual variables
	(strings substitution, in fact), and execution of timed preregistered
	sequences of commands to the interpreter (indirect mode of execution);
	this gives desklets a way to perform fluid animations.
	For developpers, this version also includes a rewritten dynamically
	configurable debug interface to the interpreter able 
	to generate complete logs on any session. See Changelog.
	
News in 0.1.3:
	* Minor bug fix release - update to this version
	if you could not get package to compile with 0.1.1 or 0.1.2
	due to error on doc/adesklets.1. Also adds a FAQ to 
	the documentation. See Changelog.
