I no longer develop or even use most of the software in this section. Contact me if you need support or custom development of something here, or if you're interested in taking over development of something here. Arrangements can be made in either case.
Jefferson is an "on-screen display" plugin for Noatun. Right now it displays the track name, volume, and status (play, pause, stop). Mail me with more ideas.
This plugin is inspired by the XOSD library, but includes code derived from KOSD.
