Guikachu 1.5.1: GNOME Resource editor for PalmOS projects



Dear users of both large and small computing tools,

A new stable release of Guikachu is available.

About Guikachu
--------------
Guikachu is a GNOME application for graphical editing of resource
files for PalmOS-based pocket computers. The user interface is
modelled after Glade, the GNOME UI builder.

Features
--------
 * Uses GNOME-VFS, you can load files from anywhere, e.g. from the
   Web, from an SMB share, from a tarball.
 * Exporting to/importing from PilRC .rcp files
 * Support for non-Palm PilRC targets (like the eBookMan)
 * Support for the following PalmOS resource types:
	- String and string list resources
	- Dialog resources
	- Menu resources
	- Form resources
	- Bitmap resources
	- Per-application resources (e.g. version number)
 * WYSIWYG Form Editor, with drag & drop capability and visual resizing
 * Flexible, complete undo support
 * Sample file with sample GNU PalmOS SDK-based application
 * Documentation (a complete user's manual)

About these releases
--------------------
A more sophisticated GNOME 2 port than 1.5.0, this release utilizes
the advanced features of GTK+ 2.4, providing a much nicer look and an
array of usability improvements:

	* List editors and the Menu Editor supports the in-place
          editing features of GtkTreeView
	* New GTK+ 2.4 file selector
	* Bug fixes

Guikachu uses the GNOME 2 platform, particularly the GNOMEmm and GTKmm
C++ bindings. The ImageMagick library is used for managing bitmap
resources. To actually create the PalmOS resource files, you will also
need PilRC (part of the GNU PalmOS SDK) to compile the .rpc files
produced by Guikachu.


Beware of bugémons!

        Cactus
