From using Joyride 2024, the new GUI option seems user-friendly (though the user needs to have the jabber_server_name written down beforehand, so he can type it in). But the old CLI option is still being supported -- and in its current state I find it confusing and inconsistent. The CLI should be friendlier (or be done away with). I myself think frame activation at the corners is an abomination - but as long as the "Software Release Notes" CLEARLY tell the user: "Here is how to get rid of it", I'll accept it being on by default. [ Though using '2000' to mean 'never' seems strange (are floating point numbers being compared ?) ] What I myself do on other hw is to go into 'keyhandler.py', and define a spare F-key to be 'frame'. Then I can activate the frame using my non-XO keyboard. mikus _______________________________________________ Sugar mailing list [email protected] http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/sugar
