iRex Releases Partial Source Code

iRex has released part of the iLiad source code.

You can find the sources here.

Here is a quick list of what is released and what it does:

  • contentLister.tar.gz - Main Program. Displays files to user and launches applications.
  • displayMgr.tar.gz - Interface to the eink controller.
  • erbrowser.tar.gz - Mozilla based html viewer.
  • liberdm.tar.gz - Manages Screen refreshes.
  • libergtk.tar.gz - User Interface Elements.
  • liberipc.tar.gz - Page bar and toolbars at bottom of screen.
  • libermanifest.tar.gz - Manifest file reading library
  • liberregxml.tar.gz - Manages the registry
  • liberscribble.tar.gz - Writing Manager

An iRex blog post states that the rest of the source code should be released sometime next week.

I'm looking forward to seeing what our community can do with all of this. Hopefully we can continue to add improvements and increase the functionality of the iLiad.

Hi Adam

Not wishing to appear too impatient how is the second stage release going? I guess the Kernel is important to you guys in development.

This must all be very exciting to programmers!
