34 <h3>Enlightenment (e17)</h3>
35 <p>
36 Enlightenment is a complete desktop environment, fully configurable with the
37 mouse and offering many themes. The version supplied by the SliTaz project
38 is known as e17 and is still in development, this version is considered stable
39 enough to be incorporated into the distribution. Enlightenment was designed to
40 be deployed on systems with limited resources, as well as more powerful
41 systems. It allows for wallpapers, menus, animated and interactive gadgets
42 and knows how to manage virtual desktops. To install e17:
43 </p>
44 <pre> # tazpkg get-install enlightenment
45 </pre>
46 <p>
47 Logout your current X session, type <code>F1</code> at Slim login and choose
48 <code>e17</code> to start Enlightenment.
49 </p>
50 <h4>Menu and desktop icons</h4>
51 <p>
52 Enlightenment is compliant to the Freedesktop standards.
53 Applications are sorted by category and icons automatically appear
54 if a desktop file is supplied. The (<code>.desktop</code>) system files are
55 contained in the <code>/usr/share/applications</code> directory or hidden home
56 <code>~/.local/share/applications</code> directory. These files
57 have a simple syntax and are editable from the panel or with
58 a simple text editor. The file menus displaying categories
59 in the Enlightenment menu are found in the <code>slitaz-menus</code>
60 package:
61 </p>
62 <pre> # tazpkg get-install slitaz-menus
63 </pre>
64 <h4>An icon on the desktop</h4>
65 <p>
66 To have an icon on the desktop launching applications, you can
67 create by hand a <code>.desktop</code> file in your local directory
68 <code>~/Desktop</code>. Desktop files placed in this directory are automatically
69 recognized by Enlightenment. A single .desktop file can
70 contain eight lines with respectively:- the name (<code>Name</code>), generic
71 name, comment, the command to execute (<code>Exec</code>), icon, type
72 and Freedesktop categories. Example of a .desktop file for Xterm icon:
73 </p>
74 <pre class="script">[Desktop Entry]
75 Name=XTerm
76 GenericName=Terminal
77 Comment=Run commands in a shell
78 Exec=xterm -bg black -fg white -cr orange -sb -bd violet -rightbar
79 Icon=/usr/share/icons/Tango/jwm/utilities-terminal.png
80 Type=Application
81 Categories=Utility;Terminal;
82 </pre>
