GTK+

I’ve resigned from writing for Tux Magazine. I only wrote for them for the first 5 issues, but the anti-GNOME sentiment really started to bug me. While I have nothing against KDE, I just don’t use it much. I mean, after all, I was there when GTK+ was born – […]

Tux and the anti-Gnome sentiment

I’m building the latest released developers version of GIMP (2.3.4 – part of the pre-2.4 series). This requires GTK+ 2.6 but I think I recently heard Sven saying that there is already a 2.8 requirement in CVS. So I grabbed GTK+ 2.8 and friends to build prior to building GIMP. […]

GTK+ 2.8 notes

The only real problem with being unemployed (aside from the whole money thing) is that you have far too much time to think of new, time consuming projects. If you’re in this industry and you’re mind isn’t twisting and crunching every time some fresh topic flies by your eyes then […]

A simple plan: open source provisioning software

I completed the port of the Graphics Muse Tools to GIMP 2.2.3 and GTK+ 2.6. The former required only a few minor changes to the use of layer and image menus (primarily) while the latter was more involved. Fortunately, most of this involved changing things like gtk_signal_connect to g_signal_connect. And […]

I’ve finished XNotesPlus 3.7.0, which is the last in the GTK+ 1.2 line of releases. I’ve posted the release and updated the web site but haven’t announced it on Freshmeat. I guess I should do that soon. The next step for XNotesPlus is to port it to GTK+ 2.x. This […]

On porting…

I’ve hit a couple of snags in trying to do various types of upgrades. The first is related to upgrading, or rather porting, my GTK+ software from 1.2 to 2.x. The second is in upgrading my laptop at work from RH9 to Fedora.

Who said upgrading wouldn’t be hard?
