+
+;; In order to activate this package, you must add the following code
+;; into your .emacs:

+;; (require 'notifications)
+
+;;; Code:
+(eval-when-compile
+ (require 'cl))
+
+;; Pacify byte-compiler. D-Bus support in the Emacs core can be
+;; disabled with configuration option "--without-dbus". Declare used
+;; subroutines and variables of `dbus' therefore.

+ "Send notification via D-Bus using the Freedesktop notification protocol.
+Various PARAMS can be set:
+
+ :title The notification title.
+ :body The notification body text.
+ :app-name The name of the application sending the notification.
+ Default to `notifications-application-name'.
+ :replaces-id The notification ID that this notification replaces.
+ :app-icon The notification icon.
+ Default is `notifications-application-icon'.
+ Set to nil if you do not want any icon displayed.
+ :actions A list of actions in the form:
+ (KEY TITLE KEY TITLE ...)
+ where KEY and TITLE are both strings.
+ The default action (usually invoked by clicking the notification)
+ should have a key named \"default\". The name can be anything,
+ though implementations are free not to display it.
+ :timeout The timeout time in milliseconds since the display
+ of the notification at which the notification should
+ automatically close.
+ If -1, the notification's expiration time is dependent
+ on the notification server's settings, and may vary for
+ the type of notification.
+ If 0, the notification never expires.
+ Default value is -1.
+ :urgency The urgency level.
+ Either `low', `normal' or `critical'.
+ :category The type of notification this is.
+ :desktop-entry This specifies the name of the desktop filename representing
+ the calling program.
+ :image-data This is a raw data image format which describes the width,
+ height, rowstride, has alpha, bits per sample, channels and
+ image data respectively.
+ :sound-file The path to a sound file to play when the notification pops up.
+ :suppress-sound Causes the server to suppress playing any sounds, if it has
+ that ability.
+ :x Specifies the X location on the screen that the notification
+ should point to. The \"y\" hint must also be specified.
+ :y Specifies the Y location on the screen that the notification
+ should point to. The \"x\" hint must also be specified.
+ :on-action Function to call when an action is invoked. The key of the
+ action is passed as argument to the function.
+ :on-close Function to call when the notification has been closed
+ by timeout or by the user.
+ The function receive the closing reason as argument:
+ - `expired' if the notification has expired
+ - `dismissed' if the notification was dismissed by the user
+ - `close-notification' if the notification was closed
+ by a call to CloseNotification
+
+This function returns a notification id, an integer, which can be
+used to manipulate the notification item with
+`notifications-close'."
