* AlanBell has a unity lens working \o/21:24
jononp :-)21:46
jononice work AlanBell :-)21:46
jonowhat does the lens do?21:46
AlanBelljono: I am making a fork of the applications lens that isn't completely irritating!21:58
AlanBellit will show all the applications I have, grouped by category21:59
jonoAlanBell, the new lens already does that21:59
AlanBellstripping out the zeitgeist frequently used stuff and the suggested applications that I don't want21:59
jonoAlanBell, are you running oneiric?22:00
AlanBellyes22:00
jonoit has categories in there as buttons22:00
AlanBellthe categories are in the filters which is daft22:00
AlanBelland I click accessories and it shows me 4 of the 10 things I have, plus 4 totally random other things22:01
jonoahhh gotcha22:02
jonocool, look forward to seeing your lens :-)22:02
AlanBellI filed a bug about the randomness of the stuff it offers for download22:02
AlanBellbut still I want a lens that shows all 77 or so applications I actually have, grouped by category with no hidden stuff (the click to see the rest of what you asked to see thing is most irritating)22:04
jonogotcha22:06
AlanBellwhen unity passes the test of being able to launch an arbitary application of my choosing I will totally start using it!22:06
jonoI find I rarely use the lens22:06
jonoI have my apps on the launcher and I just type in the app I want22:06
jonoin the search bit of the lens22:07
AlanBellyeah that works, but I ended up having a terminal running and starting stuff with "/usr/bin/gedit &" because it was just as quick22:08
AlanBella gui that you have to type in kind of misses the point for me22:08
AlanBellI started pinning some stuff to the launcher, but I don't really like the concept of stuff there that isn't running22:09
popeyheheh22:15
AlanBelltbh I am not really liking vala much22:21
AlanBelland I will do something about the getting started documentation at some point22:23
popeywhats vala like, comparing languages?22:35
AlanBellwell it isn't the language as such that I don't like, that is fine, looks like any other language that wants semicolons at the end of the line22:37
popey:D22:37
AlanBellyou have a bunch of .vala files and run make, then you have a bunch of .c files mixed with the .vala files which then get compiled22:38
AlanBellvala compiles down to c which compiles to executables22:38
AlanBellsame for the .in files and .in.in files22:39
AlanBellyou end up editing stuff that gets regenerated from other files22:39
popey*boggle*22:41
AlanBellit is highly confusing, but a lot of that could be that I don't know what I am doing22:43
