pywmdockapps is the place to be if you are interested in WindowMaker, dockapps and Python. WindowMaker dockapps are graphical applications fitting in a 64x64 tile. they can work in WindowMaker or any other window manager which can handle WindowMaker style dockapps. pywmdockapps is a Python library enabling quick development of your own dockapps plus a small collection of usable examples.
The included examples are quite untested. they may work quite well, may not work at all, may set your computer in flames, even though this is not the most likely event among the three but you have been warned. the one on which most work has been performed is pywmhdmon, but this too is no guarantee for better functioning.
The example dockapps aim at simplicity and consistency. they are as similar as possible to each other and with no excessive graphics. Since they are written in Python, it shouldn't be too hard to change something you do not like about them. if you do modify things according to your needs and tastes or if you simply try things out, please share your opinions/changes with the community, by sending a comment, suggestion, or just drop a note to say that you have tried it.
What's New in This Release:
Extensive changes were made in the generation of the XPM.
Anti-aliased fonts are supported, though only the intensity of anti-aliasing is acknowledged.
Selecting different a foreground and background does not oblige the programmer to recompute anti-aliasing colours.
