I don't believe you. At least I don't unless you or Gregor "farhaven" show us the code :).

Open source projects have the weirdest names...

The eggtray problem - Des

Also, the duplication is ment to be there, since that's the policy on using stuff from the egg library (a kind-of-experimental library in gnome), so it's not weird everyone has his own copy.

It's far from ideal, but that lays in the lack of a decent systray gtk implementation so far (or arguably, still).

For reference:

So it looks like GTK+ lacks a good system tray support, that's bad.

Still the solution is not to use eggtray IMHO but to depends on GTK >= 2.10 or to disable systray sypport on older GTK.

And probably fix the GTK implementation so it can get any widget!

The GtkStatusIcon is pretty new actually. So it can be used more or less just now, with a dependency on Gtk 2.10 of which some refrain.

And the widget point raised is also an important one, albeit depending on the usage of the tray icon...

Over in Pidgin-land, one reason that we don't use GtkStatusIcon is that we don't depend on Gtk 2.10 yet.

(Whether or not we should is a different matter. :-))

I don't know if it is the only reason, but it happen that the native GTK+ system tray implementation is less powerfull than the eggtray one :
* The eggtray is a full widget container, you can put in it any widget you wich, for exemple an eventbox, and so react to any gtk signal/X event you may want to look at.
* The GtkStatusIcon is not a widget nor a widget container, so you have no choise but to only react to the three existing signal for it : "activate" "popup-menu" and "size-changed"

I have updated it, now it's a bit more robust with multi part.

fed my spam folder to this script to see what is it (dont read python here).

2 points:

"multi-part message in MIME format" crashes the script.

It's useless for 8-bit non-latin encodings (cyrillic f.e.). Eats up latin sub-string (URLS et al.) successfully in such thou.

Cheers!

Clearly if you'd read them, you would've learned to love Xlib, and never started using XCB.

cpufreqd on Lenny/Sid works great on my new AMD X2 desktop. I'm at 1 GHz (the lowest speed) most of the time unless I'm using Flash or playing video.
