New xfce4-appentry-optimize release, and more..
xfce4-appentry-optimize release
I have just released a new version xfce4-appentry-optimize, which is an application which can optimize the application menu in xfce and gnome to use less filespace (and in some situations, to improve load). It works by removing all the unused locales.
The new version (0.2.2) fixes a bug in which a failure message is given, when in fact everything is actually working fine. It also adds official support for gnome, as I have tested it in gnome 2.18, and it appears to work fine.
Other stuff
I have recently started college and am studying for a BTEC National Diploma in computing. Wish me luck. Oh.. and I was elected to be course representative today too. Good fun. I have a feeling I won’t be as active on the blog as much as I used to be due to other commitments, but I’ll still post once in a while, and I still work on maintaining current projects, and releasing old projects and any new ones I create.
SystemWiki
I’m also hoping that SystemWiki will be relaunched within the next month or so, with the support of a private computer manufacturer. If you don’t already know, SystemWiki was a Wiki which was designed to provide information about specific computer models, from a wide variety of manufacturers. From this, people could figure out things such as tech specs, where to get drivers, and where to find other people that can help you that have the same system you are trying to fix or find out about. Similar to sites like thinkwiki, but for all desktops and notebooks, and even servers and embedded devices.
