It is the second version of Ubuntu Tweak.
The first version is 0.1.2, it’s only a semi-finished goods(Is my expression right?). I published it here:
http://www.gnomefiles.org/app.php/Ubuntu_Tweak
Some details of Ubuntu Tweak 0.1.4
- “expert mode” is finished, now this application can show a full list of expert-style help. If you want to see more information.
- only added fewer options, because I focus the main point on how to accomplish the function, in the future I will focus on the options.
- added the zh_TW language support.
- fixed a lot of bugs, and imporved the interface.

I think that ubuntu tweak could really become a killer app… BTW I wrote an application which is able to read from the ubuntu-it official forum and keep trace of the [solved] problems…
Thus, sometimes I get some Tips/Tricks/Tweaks which could be useful to extend your app… I had a glance at the source code and it seems it uses gconf strings, right ?
Here are some things you could do IMO:
- put a “static” page where people can suggest their own tweaks
- and/or put a static page where people can request tweaks
- maybe use an external db, (sqlite?) to store description/help/gconf strings, instead of hardconding them… that would ease up coding, translation and maintenance.
Thank you very much for your suggestion and encourage! I’m so happy.
And you are right, this application uses gconf string.
Follow your suggesion, I’ve create a static page of “Suggestion”, so that people can post their suggestion there.
About the external db…Em, that’s a good idea. But I don’t have any knowledge about the develop of database. I think I need to learn more now.
I will to see your application. It sounds very attractive…
Thank you again, Mr.Dreadsoft.
Maybe, SQLite is the best solution, anyhow, a simple .ini file would be good enough
