Docklets For 5.6

[Panta]

Docklets for XWD version 5.6 should be posted here.

Please, when posting a new docklet don't forget mentioning

the version of XWindows Dock to which it applies (just in case...)

Preferably, try using the following banner for clearly identifying version info:

Before installing a new docklet, it's strongly recommended backing-up the existing XWindowsDock folder!

From time to time it happens that a docklet may cause XWD to crash and a total reinstall (or at least deleting all settings files) is necessary to get things back running.

If you don't have a backup, you risk loosing all your XWindowsDock settings!

Thanks to the awesome Stacklib.dll (prebeta 5) from Matias Moreno "Matonga"

This docklet lists the current system tray icons in a fan, they can be (left/right)clicked too.

However, it seems that Stacklib once lost focus, closes itself

I couldn't get double click, either

Install:

Copy Stacklib.dll to XWD directory and XTray to docklets directory and re/start XWDock...

Just written in XP. I haven't tested on Vista/7 PCs.

Sorry, I'm not sure if I should publish this here or at Developer's Hangout thread. Please move accordingly if needed.

XWeather docklet source code (as of XWindows Dock 5.6, not sure if it's still working):

http://matias.securityconsultant.com.ar/XW...-2009-11-06.zip

Using Delphi 5 compiler, should compile under newer Delphi's with some minor changes.

I'm releasing this to everyone wanting to make modifications to it, or a new docklet or whatsoever (just keep it for free, please ).

I've been away from the community for a large time, so I thought I should at least publish the sources for others to continue / replace the docklet (if not done already, I've been unable to check yet).
