I'm pleased to annouce, after a solid month of heated debate with X11, the initial public release of PHAT, the PHat Audio Toolkit. From the website (www.gazuga.net/phat.php): "PHAT is a collection of GTK+ widgets geared toward pro-audio apps. The goal is to eliminate duplication of effort and provide some standardization (well, at least for GTK+ apps). It's open source software, licensed under the GNU GPL, version 2.0 or later." The debut and flagship widget is the fanslider, designed by Thorsten Wilm's. The LAU folks may not be too interested in the library as such, but might like to play around with this widget (hence the cross post). It comes with a demo program, "phatfantest," which displays the sliders in all their glory. Tarball: www.gazuga.net/phat-0.1.0.tar.gz Docs: www.gazuga.net/phat/index.html Let's actually go somewhere with all this debate about widgets and standards and such. Contributions are welcome (hint hint). I hope we can put an end to the Linux Usability Curse, at least in our own little neck of the woods. -- Pete www.gazuga.net ===================================================================== "I saw the movie 'I, Robot' recently, a film based loosely on a book written by science fiction author Isaac Asimov. In case you're not familiar with Asimov's writing, here's a list of things the movie had in common with the book: * The title."
