Happy new year
Ok, I'm back online.
First:
thanks for the detailed feedback.
I will try to help where I can in the next 2 days with quick issues, and have a closer look in the next days on more complicated problems.
Second: special thanks to WillHunt for his engagement in helping so much
About the current status:
while I was offline, I fixed bugs in GtkBasic.
It was not possible to destroy objects, what could result in crashes in more complex programs.
As GtkBasic will be used to write new utilities for Muppy, this was important.
I still need to add some smaller changes, but the most is done, so I will upload the fixed GtkBasic this weekend.
I also wrote a kind of "plugin" system for widgets like the Analog-Clock.
Now a widget will no longer start its own GtkBasic, but all widgets use one single instance. This reduces memory-usage. The Widgets are intended to make the desktop more "intuitive". For example they will replace the memory-consuming tray-buttons I released a while ago.
I will upload the new code in some days.
Beside that, now I got feedback from companies that intend to use Muppy.
The most important issue is localization.
The highest priority now will be to translate Puppys Wizards to german.
This means: please do not expect new programs soon, the next weeks will be full of work in fixing the reported bugs and rewriting existing programs for easier localization.
Thanks everyone for reporting their experiences.
