It allows us to remove applets +from a users configuration, without them getting cryptic messages about being +unable to resolve things, and getting a raw dump of preferences (the panel likes +to do this). In the future, the null applet will also be useful for when someone +decides not to build one of the optional applets, to prevent them from seeing +the same ugly message. + +How do I add an applet to Null Applet? +====================================== + +You'll need the factory from the oaf_server, copy that server to +GNOME_NullApplet_Factory.server.in.in, set it's location to +GNOME_NullApplet_Factory. Remove it's panel:icon attribute so that it doesn't +appear in the add to panel list. + +Who wrote this abomination? +=========================== + +Blame Davyd Madeley <davyd@madeley.id.au> |
