ATTENTION applet writers!



the applet API has yet once more slightly changed .... and there are hacks
to provide backwards compatibility but they won't be there forever so you
should port your applets since it's quite easy ... I already ported all the
ones in CVS and will commit ... the APPLET_WRITING document has been updated
(it's in the panel directory on cvs)

from APPLET_WRITING:

Changes:
========

7/3/98) the session_save signal is now being phased out, you need to use
        save_session signal which has basically the same interface, but
        uses privcfgpath instead of cfgpath. cfgpath variable is also
        being phased out and should not be used, you should use privcfgpath
        instead. The change is basically that for privcfgpath and
        save_session you add "section/key" to the path instead of just "key".
        The old stuff is still in for compatibility reasons but will disappear
        soon.

also there is now a define in applet-widget.h HAVE_SAVE_SESSION_SIGNAL so
that you can write applets that work on both 0.20 and the latest ...
