As mentioned in the "Status of CFE" thread, i'm taking a hiatus from active development on CFE. As with this update, if bugs are found or something is needed to make developing plugins easier (and isn't too involved to add) i'm happy to do what needs to get done.

This update was to fix a minor bug as well as add some support for Plugin development.

Change Log:

Fixed placement of elapsed time and track length fields in the iTunes plugin when the height of the screen is greater than 480.
Added -mainWindow method to the PluginManager to provide a pointer to the main CarFrontEnd window.
Added support for Plugins to respond to -viewWasMadeVisible and -viewWillBeRemovedFromView. See the Plugin Development thread for more details.

If you find bugs or have any other problems, please open a new thread with as many details as possible and i'll do my best to help you out.

Thanks,
-dave

Nothing much here, but I wanted to get it out.

As always, let me know if you find anything.

Change Log:
1) Fixed play/pause bug in iTunesMusicPlayer where it could not start playing a track after the next or prev track buttons were used while the current track was paused.
2) Added Current Track Index and Playlist track count to iTunesMusicPlayer.

A few changes for this build.

The source repository and tagging have been completely reworked.
Added a script to build and package CFE to make release builds easier.
Minor fix to iTunes key bindings (next & previous track were using the wrong arrow keys).
I'm no longer using the CFE version for the installer name, instead it uses the release date.
There is a new plugin!!!!!!!

Yes, you read that correctly! There is indeed a new plugin in this release. Even better, i'm not the developer! Yes, someone else from the forum has contributed to CFE!!!

I'm not going to describe it here, I will let the developer start a new thread for it and then i'll sticky it for him.

Unfortunately right now there is no option to not install the plugin, so if you install this version of CFE you will get it. If you don't like it, nuke the /Library/PlugIns/CarFrontEnd directory (or just it's contents). I'm experimenting with automated building and packaging and haven't gotten the kinks out yet. Hopefully i'll be able to get that fixed up so you can better pick and choose what and where to install.

As always, if you have a question or find a problem please start a thread about it and i'll look into it.
