Project goals

The primary goals, in order of importance would be –

• Porting extra features of old GUI to the new GUI.
• Addition of requested features. (will think of some too)
• Add whatever more that the GTK library has to offer.
• Check for and fix bugs in my code.

Progress reports

27 Jun 2011

Almost completed the port from libglade to GTK Builder. A few warnings related to missing signal connect handlers remain.

Tried it on OS X, Ubuntu and Windows 7. Need to talk to Richard regarding easier setup in OS X. The main issue I am facing is whether to use Apple's Python or Python.org python.

Presently looking into :

• bug 294 - Need to discuss the implementation with John.
• bug 501
