When I started working on Alacarte I knew nothing about calum's design for a menu editor. By around version 0.6 I had it implemented like he drew it up and then went beyond that to remove the dialog/application confusion. I started work on alacarte independant from your work (I believe I started before Mark) because I had little confidence in my C skills and believed I could finish faster using Python. It still uses the gnome-menus library that all three of us put some sort of work into so it's not a complete loss. -- Travis Watkins http://www.realistanew.com _______________________________________________ desktop-devel-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/desktop-devel-list
