Automating Your Desktop with KJSEmbed

Monday, 19 April 2004
Ian Geiser at SourceXtreme, Inc has posted the second in a series of articles on development with KJSEmbed. KJSEmbed is the KDE JavaScript engine with bindings for Qt/KDE. These bindings allow people to create scripts that can tightly integrate into KDE quickly with simple JavaScript. This article covers how to use the DCOP API from KJSEmbed and sports a simple demo script that shows off how to use this API. This article covers the bleeding edge version of KJSEmbed from CVS because of new features that were added soon after the release of KDE 3.2. The goal is to give people an overview of the new technology and to allow developers to become aware of the new scripting options. Both developers and non-developers are encouraged to check out the new article. Read More

Report: KDE at LWE NY, 2004

Thursday, 29 January 2004
KDE has wrapped up another successful visit to Linux World Expo, this year at the Javits Convention Center in New York. For three days, 10 KDE developers and a few others helped deal with a huge amount of interest from the crowd, showing off the latest and greatest in KDE 3.2. This year's show was thought to be at least twice as good as last year's, and a great time was had by all. The fun didn't stop after the expo either, with several dinners providing plenty of time for spirited arguments and the occasional hacking session. A new application for KDE was conceived (rss syndication), as well as a 5-minute hack ("Google Klip") which allows a Google search on the current Klipper selection to be invoked with a single keyboard shortcut.
