Ever wondered what D would be like if its syntax was inspired by Python instead of C? I had to find out, and the result is Delight.

I find the code easier to read without all the extra braces and parenthesis. Delight inherits all the D goodness: classes, interfaces, templates, exceptions, dynamic bounds-checked arrays, etc. Compared to Python, you get speed and static type checking.

I couldn't resist throwing in a few random changes of my own: built-in logging and a modified type system that checks for null pointers statically. I also removed all global state (static variables), and various other things I don't approve of.

All highly experimental, of course. Get it while it's hot...

Added interface to test and set handler for a type by dropping a sample file.

Added a system tray icon in 'standalone' (ie, non-applet) mode. Added stock icons to main window menu. Added 'early alert' and sound capabilities.

Support for the LZMA compression format was added. Rar archives are now extracted using the free "unrar" command. "file:" URLs are now accepted. Added a French translation and updated the Chinese one.

One way to understand how your system works is to look at which programs talk to other programs.
Here's a graph showing all the processes on my system and their sockets:

Displays CPU, memory and swap usage and disk and network throughput as compact graphical bars on the panel. Currently Linux only but may be extended. Written in python.

Updated MIME icon naming to latest freedesktop.org scheme. This should make GNOME themes work better with ROX-Filer, for example. Added a work-around for a panel placement problem with Compiz-fusion 0.7.4. Support the "Path" key in .desktop files. Updated Vietnamese, Russian, Italian and French translations. Some bugs were fixed.

Changed some deprecated code.
Use tasks module from ROX-Lib.
Added management of thumbnail handlers.

Recognize application/octet-stream as a type servers return for an unknown
type.
Better description of types.
Setting type when server disagrees now an option.
Moved option handling into options.py.
Re-enable the use of bytes_ready() to avoid blocking.
Added extra buttons, which change.
Support version 2 of the DownloadManager protocol.
Added a password editing window.
More readable formatting of byte sizes.
Catch more exceptions.
Now using rox.tasks module.
Change suffix from .fetching to .part (same as Firefox).
