[Parley-devel] Parley feature: swap

[Frederik Gladhorn]

Hi Nathanael,
welcome :)

I've been a little busy just now at a fair, so I didn't get around to answer 
earlier.
Please start with patches first. If you have questions where to find anything in 
Parley, just ask away. Apidox can be found at api.kde.org, though they could 
be in better shape.

Functionality like the language switching is sure a cool feature, though not 
one that I see as very important. That led me to wonder again if a scripting 
interface (using KDE's Kross) would be a good addition to make manipulation of 
this kind easy without cluttering the interface.
Maybe Avgoustinos is interested to work in that direction with his summer of 
code project.

I'd suggest you start out by building trunk of parley which should still 
compile with kdelibs-4.0 even (except the plasma part which can be disabled).
There is an ugly qt bug which lets the lesson view look bad in qt-4.3, 
otherwise all should be fine.
There's lots of stuff to be done still ;)

Greetings,
Frederik
