now right click on any gagdte in bryce and they ALL have a menu that
allows removal of the gagdte bar or the gadget as well as access to
gadget settings AND the ability for gadgets to extendthis menu like
lunhcer does per icon. now it's standard behavior everywhere which is
much easier to use and discover. it also removes code from every
gadget to do their own "button 3" handling as its handled centrally
making the code in gadgets simpler.
this is part of my effort to improve usability (mostly discoverability
and accessibility of settings/features).
also long press left mouse gets u gadget right click menu
this has to move many modules/gadgets actions to mouse up instead of
mouse down so the bryce has a chance to trap the events first and set
hold flags. but now long press for 0.5 sec and bryce menu come sup
(with left mouse .. so touch friendly).
in addition move context menu hanbdling to e_gadget instead of in
bryce and in e_gadget. a context callback is called so different
systems can still do different things. this should probably change to
always pop up a mnenu and simple call populate callbacks for site
owner specific content.
all in all it makes the new gagdtes more consistent, easier to use
(without a right mouse button), doesn't need special action bindings
etc. etc.
this is specifically needed for wayland but is relevant to x with
startx too ... dont let processes that e runs like apps inherit
stdin/out/err as it may be a tty and thus allow apps to do nasty
things with that tty.
@fix
All three of these gadgets are ports of the existing modules of the same name and are contained within those directories. Once the move from shelves -> bryce and gadcon->gadgets is complete, backlight and mixer will likely need to go into the sysinfo gadget.
