1 LADI Tools - Linux Audio Desktop Integration Tools
2 --------------------------------------------------
4 Laditools 1.0 «Lady "O"»
6 This is the first stable release of LADI Tools.
8 This document is an attempt to list the most relevant changes introduced
9 since the latest almost-stable release candidate (was
10 1.0~rc2+20100724.gitf4d4a2).
12 Please note it is strongly recommended to upgrade from any previous
13 version as we will NOT provide bugfix updates for oldest snaphsot taken
14 from the no longer used SVN repository.
19 Apart from wladi and g15ladi, most of ladi* tools have been renamed:
21 * ladicontrol -> ladi-control-center
22 * ladilog -> ladi-system-log
23 * laditray -> ladi-system-tray
25 Moreover, a new component has joined the LADI Tools suite: ladi-player.
26 LADI Player is a convenient, graphical VLC-style application providing an
27 all-in-one control interface to start, stop and monitor JACK as well as
28 the session handler. It also provides basic controls for managing studios.
33 All the code was ported to GTK+ 3 and the new GObject Introspection
36 Code refactoring and cleanup
37 ----------------------------
39 The code has been reorganized in order to allow the use of Python objects
40 by 3rd party applications.
42 To start writing code using the classes provided by laditools, simply do
45 from laditools import *
47 Two-in-one solution for LADI System Tray
48 ----------------------------------------
50 Formerly laditray was an implementation of GtkStatusIcon to put a nice
51 right-clickable icon into the system tray to allow users access JACK
52 controls easy way. It's been mostly rewritten and now it shows an
53 AppIndicator icon (if the library is available, see
54 http://unity.ubuntu.com/projects/appindicators/), or fall back to the
55 Freedesktop.org's old-fashioned System Tray Protocol Spec-compliant icon.
