Kitty Viewer

Kitty Viewer is a fork of the Snowglobe trunk. This is likely to change in future to track Linden Lab's viewer development repo, depending on what the current status of the Snowglobe project is (I'm unclear).

Binaries

Binaries will be posted at the Downloads page on GitHub, for both Windows and OS X. There are currently no plans to provide Linux binaries unless there is actual demand. Given there is currently no demand for any platform, this seems unlikely to be a problem in the near future.

Nightly builds may be provided if I ever manage to assembly the necessary infrastructure.

Features

Kitty Viewer is, ultimately, Viewer 2 based, with some added niceties from Snowglobe (such as Google translation, double click teleporting). Additionally, I have added the following:

  • Direct Flickr uploads when taking snapshots
  • WindLight in inventory, via specially named notecards (*.wl, *.ww)
  • Growl notifications (OS X only, for now)
  • "Now playing" notifications for the current stream (inspired by, but not taken from, Imprudence)
  • (more is coming)

Additionally, there are some minor usability tweaks to Viewer 2:

  • The Ctrl-T shortcut for the IM window from 1.23 has been restored
  • Right clicking the info button in the address bar brings up the About Land floater
  • The "Nearby" tab in the sidebar gives distance to everyone
  • Agent UUIDs show in profiles, and can be copied from the mouse hover floater

Transparency

All work on this viewer will be made available here, including the website. Source will be added continuously, rather than waiting for a release as in some other viewers.

However, I will not, necessarily, immediately push the branches I am currently working in. If you wish to see what I'm currently working on, you can ask me (on Twitter or similar), and I will push the (likely broken) branch up for all to see.

On Version Numbers

It is worth noting that this git repo currently has a rather bizarre structure, which the build script depends on for now; notably, tags mark the start of work on a release. If you want a specific release, you should take the tip of the appropriate branch - e.g. maint-0.1.0 for the 0.1.0 build. The actual build number (e.g. the 6 in 0.1.0.6) is the number of commits since I tagged v0.1.0. I realise this makes the tags on the Downloads page somewhat useless, and will look into changing the system at some point.
