GNOME Color Chooser

File Release Notes and Changelog

Release Name: 0.2.4

Notes:
Version 0.2.4

* changed project license to GNU GPL3+
* changed project URL to http://gnomecc.sourceforge.net
* new (direct) runtime dependency: glib
* new compiletime dependencies: glib, gnome-common
* newer intltool version required: 0.35.5
* added following features:
  - possibility to disable menubar and toolbar shadows
  - change colors of hyperlinks used in (GTK+) applications
  - also affect fast-user-switch-applet by panel settings
  - change colors of buttons and comboboxes separately from main colors
  - Engine Schema validator: GTK+ engine authors can now easily debug their
    schema files before publishing them (please note that schema_version 0.2,
    which has _not_ been released yet, is the first supported version; more
    news to come...)
  - revert button that resets all theme modifications
  - new command line options: FILENAME of a .gnomecc theme to load
    and --validator-only (see manual page for further information)
* loads of new translations, introducing Hebrew, Occitan (post 1500), Polish,
  Portugese, Brazilian Portugese, Russian, and Thai; please help translating this
  application into your language! There are still many untranslated strings!
  (see http://gnomecc.sourceforge.net/article-1220391113.html for more info)
* many "unimportant" changes like a decreased startup time by stripping down
  indirect dependencies by default and a decreased compile time
  (see ChangeLog for further details and problems that may occur using
   GNU binutils < 2.17 due to these changes)
