Hello ,

The only new feature in the new release is a new module addition : globalui

"The globalui module offers an interface to the S60 global UI notifiers. This allows a global note and
query to be launched from an application which does not have a UI environment" ie without using appuifw !

very simple example :

import globalui, time
text_to_show = u"text for showing note"
globalui.global_note(text_to_show,'error')
time.sleep(6)
globalui.global_note(text_to_show)
time.sleep(6)
result = globalui.global_query(u"do you want to continue ?")
time.sleep(6)
listresult = globalui.global_popup_menu([u"MenuItem1",u"MenuItem2"],u"Select item")

another example ...

import globalui, time
