Here is my lovingly-hand-crafted panel configuration. I mostly
duplicated the gtest appearance, diverging on the menus and such.
Unfortunately, the gtest dotfiles were just the dump of some
gui-generated state, so I had to go to a few days' worth of effort
understanding what was going on and turning them into something
maintainable.
The standard dotfiles will copy /usr/prototype_user/.gnome over to
~/.gnome if ~/.gnome doesn't exist. (I don't know what to do if the
copy fails due to quota.) The first time panel runs, it will
overwrite all this stuff with a state dump and will write the launcher
property settings in the user's homedir, so don't worry about the fact
that applet[2-5] live in /usr/athena/lib/init; users will still be
able to edit the launcher properties without trouble.
Some notes:
* I chose not to specify properties where we accept the
defaults. That makes it much easier to see what we change.
(In a couple of cases, the default depends on screen size;
in that case, I forced the choice, since it doesn't make any
sense for the value chosen to depend on the screen
resolution the user first happens to log in on.)
* The icons chosen are not suitable for the eventual release.
I unfortunately haven't found anything better for any of
them; I'm guessing we'll have to go to PSB for help with all
of them.
* main_menu_flags=16390 in applet-config is MAIN_MENU_USER_SUB
| MAIN_MENU_SYSTEM | MAIN_MENU_DESKTOP, i.e. the desktop and
system menus on the main menu and the "Favorites" menu in a
sub-menu. This setting determines what happens when the
user left-clicks on the menu button.
* main_menu_flags=4096 in panel-globals is MAIN_MENU_PANEL,
i.e. just the panel menu (add to panel, remove from panel,
properties, global preferences, panel manual) and the
ever-present "Run..." option. This setting determines what
happens when the user right-clicks on the panel.
* The system menu is just the default system menu installed by
gnome; we'll need to replace that with a symlink into AFS
later.
