Bug#189329: RFP: Gnome Swallow - Swallow any X application into the Gnome 2 panel.



Package: wnpp
Severity: normal

http://www-unix.oit.umass.edu/~tetron/technology/swallow/


"A very useful feature of orignal Gnome panel was the ability to
"swallow" other programs -- to embed small applications in the panel,
even if the application was not specifically written for Gnome.
Unfortunately, with the release of Gnome 2 this feature was removed. In
a discussion on the Gnome mailing list, it was pointed out that this
could feature could be easily re-added using a specialized "swallower"
applet, and that such as solution would be cleaner and more modular
besides. Despite this, no one (to my knowledge) had yet written such an
applet..."
