*****INTRO***************** Ok here is the freedesktop dock brought to you in part byyy Angelo Grossini . We are very proud of mister Grossini for donating this nice little dock. Freedesktop means this dock will go in your gnome2 or kde3 notification area. This thing will give you a little icon to control amsn, it will also show a mail icon when you receive new mail, wich you can click on to open your inbox. This is a rushed release so it will probably have problems and stuff, let us know about it. ******INSTALLATION/COMPILATION*********** I fixed it all up and gave it a small configure script to compile. here is how it goes : - First you need to have Tcl/Tk Dev packages installed. - Second you need Imlib Dev packages Installed. Then you run ./configure If it says it can't find the tk/tcl stuff, try using ./configure --with-tcl=/path/to/tcl --with-tk=/path/to/tk once thats all nice and done it will create a Makefile, then we do : make If all goes well you will have a nice little libtray.so file :) This file has to stay in this directory of course ([amsndir]/plugins/traydock/) You'll need to enable de KDE3, or Gnome2 system tray applet, or the dock icon won't work. **********HELP IT DOSEN'T WORK****************** If for some wierd reason (dosen't really have to be wierd) nothing wants to configure and maketry doing it manually as follows ( subsitute the right paths for your system): gcc -pipe -c -O -fPIC -DUSE_TCL_STUBS -DUSE_TK_STUBS -DOSS -I/usr/X11R6/include -I/usr/include/tcl8.4 -I/usr/include/tcl8.4/tcl-private/generic -I/usr/include/tcl8.4/tk-private/generic -DTCL_81_API tray.c gcc -pipe -shared tray.o -lc -L/usr/lib -lImlib -ljpeg -ltiff -lungif -lpng -lz -L/usr/X11R6/lib -lSM -lICE -lXext -lX11 -ldl -lpthread -lieee -lm -L/usr/lib -ltclstub8.4 -L/usr/lib -ltkstub8.4 -o libtray.so Well enjoy!
