FancyMenu ========= 1. Introduction --------------- Improve the look of your applications by using 'FancyMenu', the pretty replacement for GTK's menu system. Have colored menus, have menus with a background pixmap, have translucent glass menus. Have them popup, have them fade in, have them grow out of nowhere... In other words, this is just some toy package to make your programs look more like toys. :) 2. Requirements --------------- * Python 2.0 or higher * PyGTK 0.6.x * PyGTK support for GdkImlib (if you want to have translucent menus) 3. Usage -------- 'FancyMenus' comes as a package. Just put the directory 'fancymenu' somewhere in your Python path, so your programs can find it. To get started, have a look at 'example.py' and read the reference in the 'doc' directory. 4. Drawbacks ------------ To be honest, 'FancyMenu' is an incomplete replacement for the GTK menus. Currently you cannot navigate through the menus by keyboard and you cannot tear off menus. 5. Bugs ------- If you encounter bugs which are not listed here, please send a bug-report to 'martin@pycage.de'. * the author must have a bug to write such a useless toy... 6.
