Hello, I've been programming through school for 1.5-2 years now but it's always a console application. It's fun but I'd like to expand my horizon. I've learned data structures and am taking an algorithm analysis class right now. Learning how to create actual applications isn't really included in the Computer Science core, though.
Anyway, I'd like to know where I could get started with creating some simple gnome applets. I've tried searching google for "how to create a gnome applet" and others but it always comes up with various gnome applets I can download or one site to create a python applet (I don't know python yet). I'd love to find some sort of developer forum for panel applets or something similar, but I don't really know what keywords to search for.
Could anyone point me in the right direction or provide some tips to get started? What should I search for or where to search? Also, can it be coded in C++ or are they usually C?
Eventually, I hope to move on to learning how to use wxWidgets.
Thanks.
