Antico Deluxe is a Qt4/X11 Window/Desktop manager for GNU/Linux. It is a fork of famous Antico WM/DE by Giuseppe Cigala, http://antico.wordpress.com/ The goal is to create a Window/Desktop manager simple and fast, with very aesthetic and familiar look and feel. A very few parameters must be configured from few files, avoiding unnecessary complications, following the K.I.S.S. philosophy. Any other configurations like themes, icons etc. should be avoided. If you don't like the heaviness of KDE/Gnome, contribute at development... *********** License *********** GPL2, see COPYING file Sound theme files taken from http://gnome-look.org/content/show.php/%22Borealis%22+sound+theme?content=12584 under artistic license, see http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/deed.en for details. *********** FEATURES *********** The whole application is based on "$HOME/.config/AnticoDeluxe/AnticoDeluxe.conf" file for now. The overall look and feel have to be very close to MacOSX look and feel, which is ORIGINAL WORK FROM APPLE.INC Project consist of: 1. AMELIB - support library - should be keep as small as possible, with very few classes. 2. Desktop without icons for now. 3. The Top Bar with system and applications menu, and few useful widgets/plugins. 4. The bottom Dock, which acts as taskbar and iconic application launcher. 5. NOT STARTED: File Manager 6. NOT STARTED: System Preferences app. 7. NOT STARTED: some day-to-day use applications like text editor, picture viewer etc. 8. NOT STARTED: Login Manager *********** INSTALL & TESTING *********** Warning: all parts of the project are subject of heavy development and frequent amelib APIs or other changes may occur. It is recomended to remove all previously installed binary files, libraries, include headers and configurations. Extract, compile and install the usual way (Qt4): qmake make make install The application will be installed in /usr/bin dir. To test the window manager, type on shell: DISPLAY=:0 Xephyr :1 -ac -screen 1000x800 & DISPLAY=:1; /usr/bin/antico-deluxe also you may use uncluded ./adx-xephyr script or use provided XSession script for starting from login manager. *********** FUTURE *********** see TODO file. *********** THANKS *********** Giuseppe Cigala, http://antico.wordpress.com/ for his great Antico WM from where I was inspired...
