Re: [Muine] [PATCH] InfoServer

[Jorn Baayen <jbaayen gnome org>]

Hey,

This is insanely cool. Though, I don't think I'll commit it: We are
basically waiting for dbus-sharp to be released to incorporate dbus
support into muine. This will allow for queries very much like this, and
notification etc. It should then be very easy to do whatever queries and
stuff you want.

Cheers,
Jorn
