Mex 0.1.2 2011-06-24

⢠List of changes since Mex 0.1.0
» Addition of a "touch mode". This adds some mouse navigation but also
a bunch of touch friendly behaviours to Mex for it's use on tablet for
instance,

for music and it uses a visualisation plugin from GStreamer,

application,

secondary screen,

the thumbnails created by mex are private to the application (their size
wasn't part of the thumbnailing spec anyway) and we use JPEG to store
them (saves a lot of space). This thumbnailer is now the default option,
» Lot of work on the grid to improve its behaviour and corner cases,
» The usual bulk of small adjustments in the ui and content framework,
