Retrovol https://github.com/pizzasgood/retrovol git://github.com/pizzasgood/retrovol.git ---- Legal Jazz -------------------------------------------------------------- This software is released into the public domain. This software includes the eggtrayicon.c and eggtrayicon.h libraries, which were released under the GNU LGPL. They are copyrighted by Anders Carlsson, not myself. I claim no credit for them; they are unmodified. Copies of the GNU GPL and GNU LGPL are included in this package named gpl.txt and lgpl.txt, in compliance with Section 4e of the GNU LGPL. Note that eggtrayicon is only required for versions of GTK prior to 2.16. ---- End Legal Jazz ---------------------------------------------------------- Retrovol is a volume setting program. It adds an icon to the tray that can be scrolled on to change the volume. It can be middle-clicked to mute/unmute. It can be right-clicked to get a menu with an option to display the main window, which lists all the volume controls it can detect on your system. Sliders can be controlled by clicking, draging, scrolling (either up/down or left/right), and by using the left/right and PgUp/PgDown keys. Note that for the keyboard to work, you have to select the control with the keyboard. There is no visual feedback yet to show whether a control is selected (this will be improved eventually). For stereo audio controls, you can modify only the left or right channels by holding the shift or control keys respectively while manipulating the slider. Configuration changes can be made in the ~/.retrovolrc file, or through the preferences window at File->Configure. For example, you can change the colors to green and blue, make the segments fatter, disable the tray icon, and have the main window only display specific sliders. Retrovol will only allow one instance to run at a time. If you attempt to launch a second instance it will instead pop up the main window if it isn't already visible. Also, Retrovol accepts a -bg <hexcolor> commandline option to specify the tray icon's background color. Normally it will just use the normal GTK background color, but if that doesn't match your tray, you can use this to adjust it. This can also be specified in the config file (or through the preferences gui) but those are not convenient to automatically update to match the colorscheme when you change WM themes or whatever. Thus the -bg option is provided so that the script which launches Retrovol could look at the color of the theme and supply that on the commandline, without needing to modify the config file.
