Old presets file is automatically migrated to new format. * Translation updates * New translations added: Esperanto (eo), Finnish (fi), Italian (it), Korean (ko) * Bug fixes * Lots of code refactoring and clean up * Timer Applet now requires GTK+ 2.8 or later and libnotify 0.3.0 or later December 15, 2005 - Timer Applet 1.2 release * Implemented customizable notification sound in the Preferences dialog box * Added right-click menu items for pausing, resuming, restarting, and stopping the timer (thanks in part to Baris Cicek) * Added Presets submenu to the right-click menu for starting presets * Added Turkish translation from Baris Cicek * Updated Swedish translation from Sergej Kotliar * Couple of bug fixes from Toshio Kuratomi * Minor UI improvements * Bug fixes * Timer Applet now requires at least GTK+ 2.6 August 18, 2005 - Timer Applet 1.1.1 release New in this release: * Fixed another compiler warning when using GCC 4.0 August 16, 2005 - Timer Applet 1.1 release New in this release: * Fixed compiler warnings when using GCC 4.0 * Added Polish translation from Michal Kastelik April 2, 2005 - Timer Applet 1.0 release New in this release: * Fixed a bug in which deleting all presets in the Start Timer dialog would desensitize the "Start Timer" button * Fixed a bug that caused a crash by allowing the user to add a second preset named "Untitled Preset" * Properly handle customized panel backgrounds, such as transparency * Show the remaining time below the timer icon if the applet is in a horizontal panel that is larger than a certain size or if the applet is in a vertical panel * Updated French translation (Frederic Grollier) March 22, 2005 - Timer Applet 0.9 release NOTE: Due to a small change in the GConf schemas, this version of Timer Applet may forget your previous Timer Applet preferences. You'll have to re-configure your preferences for this new version. Sorry the inconvenience. This is part of some polishing for the 1.0 release. New in this release: * Display name of completed timer in "Timer Finished" dialog * Display name of timer to be resumed in "Resume Timer" dialog * Added new options for keeping the notification dialog above all other windows and for making it appear on all workspaces * Added French documentation (Frederic Grollier) * Updated French translation (Frederic Grollier) * Various tweaks and code clean-ups March 16, 2005 - Timer Applet 0.8 release The main attraction of this release is that the preferences now apply per-applet and each applet now remembers its last-used timer or preset. NOTE: Because I renamed two files (/usr/lib/bonobo/servers/timer-applet.server to GNOME_TimerApplet.server, and /usr/share/gnome-2.0/timer-applet.xml to GNOME_TimerApplet.xml) between version 0.7 and version 0.8, the old files will still remain if you install Timer Applet 0.8 or newer without uninstalling a previous Timer Applet of version 0.7 or older. This is just a minor detail that shouldn't cause any problems, but if you want things to be a bit "neater", then you should uninstall the older version of Timer Applet before installing a new version. New in this release: * Allows the user to set preferences on a per-applet basis * Remembers the last-used timer or preset even after the user restarts the computer * Added documentation that uses the GNOME help browser * "Help" menu item in the right-click menu now works * Updated French translation (Frederic Grollier) * Fixed compiler warnings * Fixed translation-related warnings March 4, 2005 - Timer Applet 0.7 release New in this release: * Simplified the Start Timer dialog. * Fixed the Start Timer dialog so that it restores previous values if the user makes changes, but presses Cancel * Made the Resume Timer dialog show the remaining time * Fixed so that users can now edit existing presets * Updated French translation (Frederic Grollier) February 18, 2005 - Timer Applet 0.6 release New in this release: * Manage Presets window is now a dialog with a Close button * Added intltool support (thanks to Frederic Grollier) * Added Spanish translation (Rafael Bermúdez) * Updated French translation (Frederic Grollier) * Updated Swedish translation (Jan Morén) * Added GConf schemas (thanks to Seth Hadley) February 2, 2005 - Timer Applet 0.5.1 release New in this release: * Fixed a bug that caused the applet to crash if the user closed the "Resume Timer" dialog with the close box February 1, 2005 - Timer Applet 0.5 release New in this release: * Start timer dialog defaults to last-used timer * Improved interface to allow the user to easily reset a paused timer * Patch to fix missing translation entries by Daniel Holbach * German translation by Daniel Holbach * French translation by Frederic Grollier * Swedish translation by Jan Morén * Various bug fixes January 30, 2005 - Timer Applet 0.4 release New in this release: * Gave the "Timer Finished" dialog a title * Made the "Timer Finished" dialog show when the countdown finished * Fixed compiler warning message * Fixed a GConf error message (thanks to Seth Hadley) * Fixed localization issues.
