* Re-work quite a bit of the background procedures for desktop plugins and ↵Ken Moore2015-06-14
| | | | | | | | | | | watchers: 1) Move the ~/Desktop directory watcher into the Session (no extra overhead, already have a watcher there), and have te session send out signals when the contents of the ~/Desktop dir change. 2) Setup the plugins that poll the desktop to use the new session implementation (reducing overhead overall) 3) Add the ability to use files/dirs in the "applauncher" plugin as well (not exposed to user yet) 4) Add a new desktop flag for auto-creating applauncher plugins for any files/dirs on the desktop (not added to lumina-config yet) 5) Get rid of all the config files for the desktop plugins and merge them all together into a single conf file that the session maintains the pointer to (so plugins can grab that pointer as necessary) 6) Make sure that desktop plugins go through a special [read/save]Setting() functions in the plugin implementation itself so that they don't accidentally trample other plugin settings (keeps it restricted to the particular group for that plugin)

* Add a new desktop plugin: desktopviewKen Moore2014-11-03

* Large quality of life update to Lumina:Ken Moore2014-10-30
| | | | | | | | | 1) Fix up the applauncher desktop plugins so that the initial sizing is sane. 2) Completely remove all global static variables from the session. 3) Re-enable the login/logout chimes (works properly without static variables) 4) Streamline the desktop background rotation algorithms a bit. 5) Greatly streamline the Session start procedure (50% to 75% faster on my computer here) 6) Make sure the background wallpaper does not rotate every time the desktop settings file changes (only when the backgrounds for that desktop are changed, or the rotation timer goes off)
* A few updates to plugins:Ken Moore2014-09-29
UserButton: 1) When creating links, always create them in ~/.lumina/favorites 2) Scan both the Desktop and the favorites dir for favorite items 3) Distinguish between removing a link and deleting a file 4) Allow for setting links to directories 5) Allow removing links to directories AppLauncher desktop plugin: 1) Make sure to use the session function for launching an item (makes the mouse cursor show the loading icon). 2) Allow for pre-defining a file path for the launcher (syntax: applauncher::<path to file>)
