I have finished the first version of my TclSigX client, and it can now be downloaded from:

EDIT: see next post

TclSigX is designed to be more easily customized than the Perl SigX script but still be hackable (read the comments that start with "Hack Note:" in the TclSigX source find some info on how to do this).

to install TclSigX, make sure you have Tcl installed, extract the TclSigX program to whereever you want (your home directory is an alright place), configure (edit TclSigX in a text editor) and setup a cron job just like you would with the Perl script.

note that the password is stored in a weak encrytion. it is stored all backwords except for the first and last characters (eg "password" becomes "prowssad").

Some plans for the future:
* Have TclSigX split up into several files, redistrobute the development versions in only the split version and the stable versions in both split and single file versions. This will start next version.
* a readme file, probaly in the next version
* Plug-ins. I got this idea from SigX.NET. this wouldnt be such a hard thing to do, but the single file version might be a problem. i might even get this to work with other scripted langauges like Perl, Python and Ruby (btw those SigX.NET screenshots look pretty cool rick ;-) )
* Support more programs when getting status info
* Impliment better ways of getting XMMS info (and other music apps too)
* TkSigX, a frontend to TclSigX. this is a long way off, if it even does happen.

Btw, any feedback from users would be great. :-)

I now have a Sourceforge project for TclSigX.

http://www.sourceforge.net/projects/tclsigx

TclSigX can now be downloaded from there.

Wow... I don't use XMMS any more, so I'll hack it to work with dcop and amaroK sometime tomorrow. Initial tests are promising.

BTW, TCL isn't one of my best languages, so It'll be messy.

I suppose this also knocks out my previous proposition for a project... never got anywhere, and this is an AWESOME client so far.

Awesome job. Looking for any devel members? I'm not much of a TCL scripter, but from what I've looked at, it's not TOO horribly different from Perl.

*note*
I've got it reading the DCOP info... now I just need to fix the formatting. I'm getting tired, though, so I'll do it tomorrow.

no problem, I'll help you clean up the code after you have got it working

yeah, and help would be great. if you dont have a sourceforge account, make yourself one and then tell me your sf username. ill add you to the project.

ive tried hacking some perl myself, and from what ive seen, Perl is pretty similar to Tcl except Tcl doesnt have that tricky string manipulation and other weird syntax stuff, but it is alot more straight forward and i find it easier to read.

btw, you have just reminded me to work on the TclSigX hacking doc I started on sourceforge. /me goes to finish it... :-)

I just registered a sf account. noclue2 is the user name.

I should have this done within an hour or so... Just fixing a few formatting bugs right now.

*Edit*

Done. I had to totally rethink how I wanted to do it. It's more versatile than when the first time I did it.

Hmm... I'm wondering how I should post it. I don't want to post all the code in a message, and I don't have a website. I guess I'll just wait to be added to the sf team.

alright, cool, you are now a project member. :-)

you can submit your modded version of TclSigX to the patches section. Patches, hacks, they are both the same thing. ^_^

Will do as soon as I reboot... I'm on windows right now, and I've always had trouble with the ext3 drivers for windows I've found.

Anyone else interested in joining?

I've just looked through your code, and can see how it works.

and.. im thinking of totally changing the way TclSigX creates the listeningTo data items and including and extending your hack into the next version (v0.1.1).

oh and noclue, is there any language you prefer to program in. im planning to start on plugin support for multiple langauges in v0.2.0 so if there is any language you want me to support, just tell me.

and by the way, the reason dcop wont work on cronjobs is because the cron jobs are run as a different user (i think...). ill have to make a workaround for this in TclSigX.

thanks yuriy, and and by the way did you read my Unix clients on Download page thread?

I read through the dcop manual again and noticed something that completely missed me before... the --user option.

I'm working on a hack to exploit this presently. This new hack of mine will also include an if statement to get rid of "Now Playing: " entries when used with amaroK. Hopefully, anyway.

*Finishes his new hack*

Let me check... I didn't originally write it...

*examines*

Yes, we do.

Also, on my new hack, I changed the retrieval method a bit... and the if statement didn't get done... it just wasn't working... I'm not sure why.

yeah i was also playing around with that --user option on dcop too last night. a problem that might come up with dcop is if the user has more than one session. however i think we will leave that now (why would you run two kde sessions under one user anyway?)

yuriy, if by url encoding you mean this:

Code:
proc urlEncode {string} {
  return [string map [list \n "*<*" " " "%20" \; "%3b" / "%2f" ? "%3f" : "%3a" @ "%40" & "%26" = "%3d" + "%2b" \$ "%24" , "%2c" % "%25" < "%3c" > "%3e" # "%23" \" "%22" \{ "%7b" \} "%7d" | "%7c" \\ "%5c" ^ "%5e" \[ "%5b" \] "%5d" ` "%60"] $string]
}


than yeah :-)
