The ncid-applet
is an NCID client Gnome applet. It displays an icon, label, and text in the panel. The text is either information from the last phone call or a message.
The label is either CID: for an incoming call, OUT: for an outgoing call, HUP: for a call hangup, or MSG: for a message.
A left click on the applet brings up the call window. A right click on the applet brings up the menu.
The applet has separate windows for incoming calls, call hangups, outgoing calls, messages, sending a message, preferences, help, and About.
Call hangups require the server hangup option, and outgoing calls require a SIP gateway that supports outgoing calls.
The applet has manual install and uninstall scripts. See INSTALL for details.
