New Eagle and Maemo-TaskManager release for Maemo 2.0

Thanks to INdT sponsorship I've been able to work on Eagle port for Maemo 2.0 and some great improvements:

  • Tabs support: also known as TabWidget, Notebook and TabControl, this widget helps a lot to solve UI problems with small screens. Maemo-TaskManager now uses it to display some statistics (screenshot). It's also really easy to use, check the API.
  • Expand Policy: now developers can define expand/fill policy for both horizontal and vertical axis for widgets, just give the expand_policy parameter with one ExpandPolicy.Policy, there are some pre-defined, like All.
  • Nested Groups and Groups Without Borders: now it's possible to have nested Group elements and also specify them to use border=None so borders will be disabled. This enables you to create richer layouts within those 5 pre-defined areas.
While I have no repository for maemo, download it here.. There are other packages for other platforms at http://www.gustavobarbieri.com.br/eagle/packages/.

Maemo-TaskManager now provide CPU and Memory load graphs and its package support Application Installer, just download it here
