Phosh already shows emergency contacts on the lock screen. This week in GNOME

This week in GNOME

Although in countries like Spain it is said that Christmas begins on December 22, more specifically with the lottery draw, already on the eve of the 25th it can be said that we are fully on these important dates. That being the case, it is a bit surprising that the different projects do not take a total break, and someone who is writing today about what others are doing is telling you... With more or less rest, GNOME He published yesterday the news that have taken place in his circle in the week that has gone from December 16 to 23.

Although the truth is that they have released the accelerator a bit. This week's article is rather short, although I would say not the shortest in TWIG's history. Next you have the News list that they have provided us this week, and next Friday we will know if it has been the last of 2022.

  • Graphs has been released, a new tool from libadwaita that allows you to import and plot data from multi-column data files, and transform and manipulate these data sets in a jiffy. It is also possible to easily generate data from equations. You can transform and plot multiple data files at the same time, both imported and generated data receive the same treatment and can be saved as text files for later use. It is in the early stages of development, but most of the core features are already implemented. The latest version of Graphs is available at Flatub.
