Hello everyone, I just released version 71 of the Read activity. This version will let you associate (add and edit) notes with your bookmarks[1], and has a slightly more useful fullscreen view (you can now get a rough idea of how much battery is left in your laptop/netbook without invoking the frame)[2]. The activity has been tested to work on Fedora 11 based systems such as SOAS-Strawberry, and it will work in a Sucrose 0.84 environment (and I plan to make sure that it keeps working on Sugar 0.84). However, if you are using SOAS or the Fedora 11 builds for XO-1 or XO-1.5, you will need to install WebkitGTK, python-lxml and python-BeautifulSoup. The following command would do the trick: yum install webkitgtk python-lxml python-BeautifulSoup (Note that this version should work even you do not have these installed in your system - only the Epub support will not be available)
As with the previous release, I am not releasing the bundle via activities.sugarlabs.org, since I do not consider it fit for general consumption yet. However, if you want to test it out (please do :-), you can download the bundle from http://dev.laptop.org/~sayamindu/bundles/read/Read-71.xo Source code =========== http://download.sugarlabs.org/sources/sucrose/fructose/Read/Read-71.tar.bz2 XO Bundle ========= http://dev.laptop.org/~sayamindu/bundles/read/Read-71.xo Changes ======== * Support for notes associated with bookmarks * Show a information bar in fullscreen mode, with pagecount and battery information * Do not fail to start when Epub specific code does not load Thanks, Sayamindu [1] http://dev.laptop.org/~sayamindu/read_notes.png [2] http://dev.laptop.org/~sayamindu/epub_fullscreen_1.5.png -- Sayamindu Dasgupta [http://sayamindu.randomink.org/ramblings] _______________________________________________ Sugar-devel mailing list Sugar-devel@lists.sugarlabs.org http://lists.sugarlabs.org/listinfo/sugar-devel
