Snarl is a global notification system. Snarl works in a similar way to the balloon-style tooltips that appear from time to time in the system tray, however it doesn't take the keyboard focus away when displaying a notification.
Multiple notifications can be displayed at once and you can also change the appearance of the notifications.
To use Snarl, simply launch it from the Start Menu. The first time it runs it will test how quickly blended images can be drawn - this test should take less than 5 seconds on most computers - and then display a notification confirming it started okay. After this Snarl will sleep quietly in the background until an application sends it a notification.
What's New in This Release:
· Fixed bug to do with class default timeout. Credit to Pako for this. (43.50)
· Fixed bug which caused notification_info->title to be empty if S_STYLE_IS_ WINDOWLESS is specified but neither of S_STYLE_V42_CONTENT nor S_STYLE_WANT_ APP_NAME are and "Include host name when forwarding" is disabled. Credit to Pako for spotting this. (43.35)
· Style Engines can now support their own configuration interfaces. To do this, the style engine should respond to a call to IStyleEngine.StyleAt() where the index provided is zero by setting style_info->flags to S_STYLE_IS_CONFIGURABLE. Snarl will then call IStyleEngine.GetConfigWindow() with StyleName set to ".global". At this time, the engine should provide its own UI and return zero. Returning a non-zero value is not permitted and will break in future releases of Snarl. (43.34)
· "Remove Selected" in the missed/history lists now correctly removes the selected items. (43.34)
· External apps can now query Snarl's state using the new snGetSystemFlags() API...
