EDIT 20101214: new release: v4

Read message #6 for more information about zenity and hpdf.


Hi again,

some of the DR developers/porters are thinking on a common core to build our apps on top.

This package is the basis for it (on the eReader side), some common libraries and tools already compiled for the DR800 and DR1000 that many apps could share, instead of including their own copies. Personally, my ports (FBReader, Osmo, Xournal, lua, etc) will require this package installed on your DR to run from now on.


Included libs in this package:

• fribidi 0.10.9
• liblinebreak 2.0
• libbz2
• libical 0.44
• gtkhtml 2.6.3
• gtkspell 2.0.16
• libart_lpgl 2.3.21
• libgnomecanvas 2.30.1
• poppler 0.10.7
• goocanvas 0.15
• gtksourceview 2.6.2
• gtksourcecompletion 0.7.0
• vte 0.17.4
• libglade 2.6.4
• libharu [hpdf] 2.2.1

There are also some useful applications in the "bin" directory:

• fbshot 0.3: take screenshots as .png files
• zile 2.3.21: tiny emacs-like file editor
• zenity 2.20.1: run simple gtk+ dialogs from command line

They are useful when working from a terminal on the emulator or from within the DR using usbnet in a ssh connection.


Steps to install:
1. enable SD card folders browsing
2. connect device to your computer using the USB cable
3. create a folder "/Programs" in SD card root
4. copy the contents of this compressed file there.
You should have something like:

       SD card
           /Programs
               _base               (directory)
