1=============== 2EnvironmentPane 3=============== 4 5This example shows how to build preference panes in python. This example 6requires a framework install of Python and the Developer Tools. 7 8Note that is a fully functional and usefull preference pane, this pane 9allows you to change the default environment for all your processes. Changes 10to the environment will only be effective after you logout and login again. 11 12The same technique can be used to build plugin bundles for other applications, 13as long as those applications support Cocoa plugins. 14 15To test this:: 16 17 $ python buildplugin.py build 18 $ mv build/EnvironmentPane.prefPane \ 19 ~/Library/PreferencePanes/EnvironmentPane.prefPane 20 21The preference pane can be uninstalled by removing the bundle 22``EnvironmentPane.prefPane`` from Library/PreferencePanes in your 23home directory. 24 25NOTE: You can also add a symlink to ~/Library/Preferences. If you modify 26the meta information of the pane (mostly its icon and label) you should 27recreate the link, otherwise System Preferences won't reread the information. 28
