Hi folks A new version of the complete r2l package is here: 0.1.0 The main change is that the code for refreshd is in. I have not included Emil's biditext binary, as it seemed to me that it is simpler to do in a shell script (see my previous post), and anyway, it should be part of the existing biditext script. You can get it from http://www.technion.ac.il/~tzafrir/R2L/r2l-tarball There are many files there (see the README). r2l-0.1.0.tar.gz is the tarball that includes everything. There is also an rpm package. To run refreshd: simply run 'refreshd' To run a client with refreshd support: For the moment you'll have to use: BIDITEXT_FILENAME=`r2l p token` LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/biditext.so:/usr/lib/refreshd_hook.so command_and_params Emil: refreshd fails if BIDITEXT_FILENAME is not set. but you shouldn't query the environment directly: you should ask r2llib what is the token (as I did in the above command). TODO: * finish the merge of refreshd - add refreshd_hook support to the biditext script - init.d script (inluding 'status' ?) - check if my refreshd tarball builds outside r2l-package - 'make pack' for the refreshd tarball - I'm not sure I really like the way I modified those makefiles * kde applet (Guy? Shlomi?) * automatic configuration (autoconf, or a home-made mini-autoconf). * strip binaries * Write a more complete README An idea for the GUIs: indicate if refreshd is running. allow strating/stopping it The main item in the TODO list is the automatic config: The package needs to compile out-of-the-box at least on common linux configs. A couple of problems: - QT and KDE directories - libdockapp - use a system r2llib if installed? - locatoin of X11 headers/libs -- Tzafrir Cohen mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.technion.ac.il/~tzafrir ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Haifa Linux Club Projects Mailing List (http://linuxclub.il.eu.org) To unsub send an empty message to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
