I was considering rewriting the binary clock in Python anyway, since last time I checked it didn't support true binary, only binary-coded decimal, and it'd be good practise for making plasmoids, but right now the Python bindings don't seem to be working? (I made a C++ patch for it but it was a very ugly patch, many of the figures used were hard-coded in so it involved changing a lot of things around to the point were it would have been easier to just re- write.) Anyway I'm mainly concerned when I see things like the KTorrent plasmoid (in SVN along with KTorrent itself) being written in C++, since it's a new plasmoid, not a core part of KDE and written by a 3rd party, I feel it should not be running in a way that could bring down the desktop. Has there been much thought put into getting more 3rd party plasmoids written in scripting languages, and any possible solutions to the dependency problem? _______________________________________________ Plasma-devel mailing list Plasma-devel@kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/plasma-devel
