			ROX-Lib2
			Shared code for ROX applications
			by Thomas Leonard
			http://rox.sourceforge.net

17-Apr-2004 (Release 1.9.14)
~~~~~~~~~~~
Added ToggleItem (based on a patch from Ken Hayber).

15-Apr-2004
~~~~~~~~~~~
Better <label> widgets (wrapping and icon). Taken from LookAndFeel.

20-Mar-2004
~~~~~~~~~~~
Stop themes from overriding the display of the colour-picker buttons in
the options box (Rene Ejury).

17-Mar-2004
~~~~~~~~~~~
Warn about old versions of findrox.py.
Bugfix: Bug in new menu API prevented submenus from working.

16-Mar-2004 (Release 1.9.13)
~~~~~~~~~~~
Bugfix: Icon themes didn't work with python versions older than 2.2.2
	(reported by Thomas Zajic).

15-Mar-2004
~~~~~~~~~~~
Bugfix: Use filer module to show ROX-Lib help, rather than using os.system,
	so that it works with Zero Install (reported by Keith Hopper).

14-Mar-2004
~~~~~~~~~~~
Added widget_registry to OptionsBox, to provide an easy way to register
new option types. Removed build_button in favour of this method.

Bugfix: If an error occurred loading the ROX theme at startup it could not
	be reported, because icon_theme wants debug, debug wants saving, and
	saving wants icon_theme (reported by Thomas Zajic).

12-Mar-2004
~~~~~~~~~~~
Cope with pygtk2.2 API change (Stephen Watson, reported by Guido Schimmels).

06-Mar-2004
~~~~~~~~~~~
Added secretentry and button options to the OptionsBox (Stephen Watson).

26-Feb-2004
~~~~~~~~~~~
Cope with option values split into multiple DOM text nodes (Rene Ejury).

22-Feb-2004
~~~~~~~~~~~
Allow a list of values to be stored in each menu Action. These are used as
the arguments to the callback function.
If a file's details were recorded (in document.save_last_stat) when it was
loaded, make sure they haven't changed when saving. Saving also updates this
variable (requested by Arnaud Calvo).

20-Feb-2004
~~~~~~~~~~~
Updated examples in documentation for new findrox (Yuri Bongiorno).

10-Feb-2004
~~~~~~~~~~~
New API for menus. Instead of passing tuples for menu items, python classes
can be used. The old tuple interface is still supported.

07-Feb-2004
~~~~~~~~~~~
Don't stop DnD working in the savebox just because no icon can be found
(reported by Martin Lucina).

02-Feb-2004
~~~~~~~~~~~
Added French translation (Vincent Lefèvre).

30-Jan-2004
~~~~~~~~~~~
Also translate <label> elements in the Options box (reported by Arnaud Calvo).

28-Jan-2004
~~~~~~~~~~~
Also translate section names in the Options box (reported by Arnaud Calvo).

22-Jan-2004 (Release 1.9.12)
~~~~~~~~~~~
Added 'tasks' module to provide a light-weight alternative to threads.
Bugfix: On non-zero-install systems, the sense of the version check in findrox
	was wrong.

02-Jan-2004
~~~~~~~~~~~
Added method to MIMEtype to fetch its icon. Install list window for
the MIME handler installation uses it (Stephen Watson).

13-Dec-2003
~~~~~~~~~~~
Translate text in Options box.

28-Dec-2003
~~~~~~~~~~~
Allow ROXLIB_DISABLE_ZEROINSTALL to override looking for ROX-Lib in Zero
Install (useful for ROX-Lib developers). Prefer a locally installed version
of ROX-Filer to the Zero Install version; this also allows users to select
which Zero Install version they want (eg, stable or developer).
Moved MIME handler installation into a separate module (mime_handler) and
made a few changes to the XML syntax.

24-Dec-2003
~~~~~~~~~~~
Added <menu> OptionMenu widget for Options box (Chris Shaffer).

27-Nov-2003
~~~~~~~~~~~
Fixed bug in findrox when not using Zero Install (Lionel Bringuier).

26-Nov-2003
~~~~~~~~~~~
Escape and unescape URIs, as required by ROX-Filer 2.1.0 (reported by
Peter Geer).
Note that the xds_load_uris() method is now called with escaped URIs.
Try to run the filer through Zero Install, if possible.

11-Nov-2003
~~~~~~~~~~~
If we can't get pygtk through Zero Install, try the local copy.

05-Nov-2003
~~~~~~~~~~~
Added support in mime.py for an application to set MIME-type run
actions and thumbnail programs (Stephen Watson).

31-Oct-2003
~~~~~~~~~~~
Simplified implementation of saving.SaveFilter by using the new
processes.PipeThroughCommand class. The child_run() method of SaveFilter
is no longer supported.
In processes.PipeThroughCommand, a None input stream gets /dev/null instead
of inheriting its parent's stream. The class has a new run_child_with_streams
to make overriding the behaviour easier.
findrox.py script now warns if ROX-Lib2 version is too old (unless requesting
a version too old to have a version number).

29-Oct-2003
~~~~~~~~~~~
Changed 'Dismiss' to 'Close' (Chris Shaffer).
Bugfix: Error reporting in mime.py failed to import the _ function (reported
	by Christopher Haines).
New AppInfo.py for parsing AppInfo.xml files (Christopher Arndt), InfoWin
converted to use it (Stephen Watson).

15-Oct-2003 (Release 1.9.11)
~~~~~~~~~~~
Bugfix: Python 2.3's new bool type broke options saving (reported by Lars
	Hansson).

13-Oct-2003
~~~~~~~~~~~
Added PipeThroughCommand class (copied from Archive, with some minor
changes).

09-Oct-2003
~~~~~~~~~~~
Allow event to be None for Menu.popup. This allows the menu to be activated
from the keyboard, using the 'popup-menu' signal.

08-Oct-2003
~~~~~~~~~~~
Added French translation in AppInfo.xml (Vincent Lefèvre).

03-Oct-2003 (Release 1.9.10)
~~~~~~~~~~~
Added support for icon themes (doesn't do inheritance yet).

28-Sep-2003
~~~~~~~~~~~
Added some version information to the dialog you get when you run ROX-Lib
directly.

22-Sep-2003
~~~~~~~~~~~
New bug() function to quickly bring up a debugging prompt.

15-Sep-2003
~~~~~~~~~~~
The glob patterns in mime.py are now sorted longest first. Fix for setting 
icon in the old way when there was no icon (Stephen Watson).

25-Aug-2003
~~~~~~~~~~~
Try to cope better with bad hostname setup (reported by Nathan Howell).

24-Aug-2003
~~~~~~~~~~~
Added InfoWin.py to provide standardized information window (Stephen Watson).

24-Aug-2003
~~~~~~~~~~~
Fall back to old way of setting default icon for older pygtk's (Stephen 
Watson).

20-Aug-2003
~~~~~~~~~~~
Added Italian translation (Yuri Bongiorno).

18-Aug-2003

25-Jul-2003
~~~~~~~~~~~
Updated findrox to use ZeroInstall, if possible.

22-Jul-2003
~~~~~~~~~~~
Work out correct application name even if invoked via a symlink. This stops
applications from calling themselves 'text_plain', etc (reported by Joe Hill).

19-Jul-2003 (Release 1.9.8)
~~~~~~~~~~~
Make default menu positioning function keep the pointer inside the menu.
Allow stock icons in menus.

18-Jul-2003
~~~~~~~~~~~
Added position_fn argument to rox.Menu.popup.

17-Jul-2003
~~~~~~~~~~~
Cope with % escaped URIs.

04-Jul-2003
~~~~~~~~~~~
Added italian translation in AppInfo.xml (Yuri Bongiorno)

26-Jun-2003
~~~~~~~~~~~
When loading data from another application, pass the suggested leafname to
xds_load_from_stream().

04-Jun-2003
~~~~~~~~~~~
Code tidying, thanks to pychecker.

26-May-2003
~~~~~~~~~~~
Added fileutils module, which provides an interactive makedirs() function
(Richard Boulton).
Changed savebox module to use it.

16-May-2003 (Release 1.9.7)
~~~~~~~~~~~
New icon (Geoff Youngs).
Added 'basedir' module for freedesktop.org Base Directory specification.

06-May-2003
~~~~~~~~~~~
Added functions to read MIME database (Stephen Watson).

27-Jan-2003 (Release 1.9.6)
~~~~~~~~~~~
Make the default window class the name of the application directory, not
'AppRun' (suggested by Albert Wagner).
Bugfix: With pygtk-1.99.14, only the first error message from a process
	would be detected; this meant that ROX-Lib wouldn't detect when the
	process quit (reported by joehill).
Bugfix: <hbox> and <vbox> layouts didn't work in the options box (Allen
	Leonard).

22-Jan-2003
~~~~~~~~~~~
If python is too old, raise SystemExit instead of quitting.
Ensure that True and False are defined.

16-Dec-2002
~~~~~~~~~~~
Work around bug in some versions of pygtk that stopped the options window
from working.

12-Dec-2002 (Release 1.9.5)
~~~~~~~~~~~
Upgrade Options box to new style.

11-Dec-2002
~~~~~~~~~~~
Bugfix: If an option had an empty value, an exception was thrown on loading
	(reported by Stephen Watson).

05-Dec-2002
~~~~~~~~~~~
Cope with missing input_add_full.

25-Oct-2002
~~~~~~~~~~~
Pygtk 1.99.12 seems to more-or-less work now (according to Alastair Porter), so
remove the warning for that so we can support RedHat 8.0.

20-Oct-2002 (Release 1.9.4)
~~~~~~~~~~~
More warnings about old pygtk versions.
Added Dialog class (does ref-counting, like Window).

15-Oct-2002
~~~~~~~~~~~
Trying to use ROX-Lib2 with earlier versions of python now gives a sensible
error message.

10-Oct-2002
~~~~~~~~~~~
Make clicking on ROX-Lib itself work again (Christopher Arndt).

25-Aug-2002
~~~~~~~~~~~
Updated findrox.py to use pygtk 1.99.13 -- update your programs!

25-Aug-2002 (Release 1.9.3)
~~~~~~~~~~~
Switch to use new pygtk versioning system (requires pygtk 1.99.13).

19-Aug-2002
~~~~~~~~~~~
Added 'processes' module, based on code in Archive, which makes controlling
subprocesses easier.

14-Aug-2002
~~~~~~~~~~~
Bugfix: Changing the keys lost any builtin shortcuts (Gtk behaviour has
	changed since 1.2).

08-Aug-2002
~~~~~~~~~~~
Trap exceptions when activating menu items and report nicely.

07-Aug-2002
~~~~~~~~~~~
Bugfix: Remember to call drop_finish() after a drag-and-drop operation.

05-Aug-2002 (Release 1.9.2)
~~~~~~~~~~~
Renamed XDSLoader module to 'loading' (like 'saving').
Added 'mime' module for installing extra MIME information.
Bugfix: XDSLoader didn't handle the drag-drop signal, and so only worked for
	widgets with their own implementation!

31-Jul-2002
~~~~~~~~~~~
Show local variables in report_exception, and allow expressions to be
evaluated in the context of any frame.
Added StringSaver class.

25-Jul-2002
~~~~~~~~~~~
Added applet module for creating ROX panel applets.

24-Jul-2002
~~~~~~~~~~~
Bugfix: saving code didn't cope with missing images (reported by Musus Umbra).

21-Jul-2002
~~~~~~~~~~~
If 'gtk2' isn't available, see if 'gtk' is actually the 2.0 version.
Added save_set_permissions to Saveable interface, allowing the default
save_to_file to preserve file permissions.
Changes to XDSLoader: xds_load_from_stream(name, type, stream)
replaces the old xds_load_data(data).
Loading files from remote filers works now.
Added much improved exception reporting system.

19-Jul-2002 (Release 1.9.1)
~~~~~~~~~~~
Added support for translations.

18-Jul-2002
~~~~~~~~~~~
License change to the LGPL (allows commercial programs to use this library).
Added AbortSave exception.

14-Jul-2002
~~~~~~~~~~~
Saveable.save_to_file() should raise an exception when saving fails, rather
than returning 0. The return value is now ignored (note that raising an
exception will still work with 1.9.0).
toplevel_unref() ignores any arguments, so it is easier to use as a signal
handler.

12-Jul-2002 (Release 1.9.0)
~~~~~~~~~~~
First release for Gtk+-2.0.
