I know there are some people out there who stick with GTK2 as much as I try to go GTK3 only. For those people (and for the fun of it), I have updated GTimeUtils with GTK2 support. It required only a few changes.

You can choose which version to build by specifying -GTK{2,3} to make at compile time. See the README in the GitHub repository for more information.

No.
This can be done with http://tronche.com/gui/x/xlib/window/XLowerWindow.html .
for now I do not I have this option for minimize clients.

Check showhide in dwm.

But then why the option for a panel? tongue

Hmm, I've set to use the "clocks" icon. Can you try with another icon theme? I'm using Faience myself, in which I do get an icon. If it does work, I'll set a fallback icon. Otherwise, I gotta see what's wrong.

I don't know how to close a program and keep it running in the tray/background. I thought you simply wanted a tray icon and then minimize Gtimer itself?

Lastly, I can't do anything about the not updating toolbar. Or it will be hackish, but no clean solution at least. Is it a big deal?

No idea Wux, I never used zsh. Did you source your .bashrc after applying the changes, or logout and back in?

It was a long and challenging build but well worth it. Going to make a few clones and try adding X and some other visual gimcrackery.

That! For some reason, halfway through all my compiles would fail so I never managed to get one installed. Congrats!

Now, are you ever going to use it as your production machine?  cool

You can change console colours in .bashrc:

#14 Re: CrunchBang Talk » I removed the tint2 » 2013-05-16 14:57:39

Orjust run this:

#!/bin/sh
nm-applet    > /dev/null 2>/dev/null &
stalonetray  > /dev/null 2>/dev/null
killall nm-applet

And kill it when your connection is established.

That may be true, but if you use the commandline alot to navigate around it's relieving not having to capitalize your folders every command.

Thinking about all these suggestions for alternative text-editors, media players, image viewers...
Could we be making more use of the Debian alternatives system, as suggested here: http://crunchbang.org/forums/viewtopic.php?id=26418

It's possible to invent commands and add them to the system, eg I just tried:

sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/cb-image-viewer cb-image-viewer /usr/bin/viewnior 50

to make a new command "cb-image-viewer". This could then be used in the menus instead of calling a specific app, making it much easier for users to customize the defaults. (It would probably be a good idea to add cb-image-viewer.desktop to /usr/share/applications and maybe edit some file-association files too. See here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1501719 )

That's a sweet suggestion!

#17 Re: Off Topic / General Chat » GTimeUtils: small GTK3 stopwatch and timer » 2013-05-14 18:08:22

I have just added basic system tray support to Gtimer.

This really does need testing by those who have an actual system tray. I use DWM (without a tray, and without the possibility to minimize windows) so I can't properly test this. I installed stalonetray but did find some weird things. I have worked around these (I can check whether or not the user has a system tray running. With stalonetray, it works the other way around: what normally would be TRUE with a tray, is FALSE with stalonetray - I think). This means that for those with a "proper" tray, it might actually work the other way around. Also, I'm not actually sure if you can minimize to it tongue

When Gtimer starts, there is no tray. It only shows up when you start a countdown and it dissapears again when the countdown is completed. (so you can pause/stop safely, the icon will remain there). There is a tooltip on mouseover that shows the time left, but this does not get updated: it only shows the time from when the tooltip opened. There is no right-click menu, as I don't see a need for that. If you do, I might implemented it after all.

Cheers!

Hacking sxiv continued: wallpaper support.

I was reading the sxiv's developers reasoning for why he didn't include wallpaper support.  His response was basically because of imsetroot already existing and unix philosophy.  Why not just use imsetroot?

With minimal setups, why not set your wallpaper with feh?

I don't want to have two image viewers installed (feh vs sxiv) and since the codebase is so small for setting wallpapers, I think it's neat to just implement in sxiv. Also, because I can.

Of course, you're free to use whatever you like wink

You don't actually see it, but this wallpaper is set by sxiv  cool

Now there's still alot of work ahead. sxiv still can not restore the background on startup (like nitrogen's --restore flag) and there are some bugs too. I've been working on this for the last two or three days so I'm just happy I finally got the first step working.
