historical AppInst changelog

2012-06-12: 2.1.2

  • use explorer for filebrowser on Windows (PR 2)

  • fixed shortcuts have wrong executable (PR 3)

2012-04-25: 2.1.1

  • added ability to specify a working directory via a 'working_dir' key … in a shortcut definition. This is then used on win32 only to set the 'Start in' directory of the created shortcut.

  • On windows the target length is limited to about 260 chars and we use python -m webbrowser instead of running the full path to the module to reduce the length of the target.

2011-03-14: 2.1.0

  • added menu and shortcut removal ability on MaxOSX and Linux

  • removed registry path stuff on Windows, and hence pywin32 dependency

  • add ability to have a menu icon on Linux <custom_tools>/menu.ico

  • removed separate rh3 and rh4 modules

  • simplified much of the code

2010-12-09: 2.0.4

  • This version has been used for a long time.

10 October, 2008 (DP): - API: Finished refactoring that created the application_menus.py module which allows data-driven creation of application menus for both KDE and Gnome on RH3, RH4, and probably other modern Linux distributions. The RH4 implementation creates application menu files that conform to FreeDesktop.org's Desktop Menu Specification 1.0. Though users may need to modify the application_menus.py module to get it to try that implementation on another distribution or version.
