Hi,
I really like to contribute to playonlinux and improve it. Playonlinux is working nicely, but the UI is quite confusing and not user friendly at all. I'm using playonlinux from the ubuntu karmic repos, it's the 3.6 version.

It's just quite a few things I like to improve.
- the annoying update manager
- lack of contex menu on the application's icons
- the applications are not in the KDE menu
- user friendly installation of applications not supported
- no quick launch of applications, etc.

If I'm not mistaken playonlinux is written in python and using GTK+?
I'm a software developer now for 3 years, and have been programming for over 10 years. I'm very used to OOP and quite good in C, C++, Java and Python, too.

In this thread I would like to ask the location of the code repository because I couldn't find it on this website.

With kind regards.

I introduced context menu in POL 3.7


PlayOnLinux is written in python and bash and uses wxWidgets.



Simply go here and download Generic package. Whole code of playonlinux is in scripts in this package.

If you don't speak French you will have trouble understanding the comments, function names and some variable names. =(

True =(

Ah ok. I thought it would be some kind of source control system, like subversion or git.



That could be kind of a problem

Don't worry. It isn't so bad. I didn't know anything about Python and French, but more or less I understood the code and was able to add something from me.

There are no Class Diagrams or the like, like UML diagrams, which would help me to understand the code?

I don't know nothing about it.
