> From TRAC  Ticket #9111 (bert, december 2008)
> Picking up on an idea in TRAC #8982:
> It's pretty trivial with a little piece of Squeak code to grab all the mp3s in the Journal and play them back. If we could make it as simple to build a media player using Etoys tiles that would be awesome. E.g., based around a "JournalMorph" that would list the journal entries of a given mime type?
> That would open up a nice way to make slide shows etc.
> (karl) This would be a really nice tool for Etoys. Do you have a few snippets for reading files, setting mime types etc ? I'm not really sure how to do this with Dbus.
> (bert) I think there is an example in the class comment of SugarDatastore. You can also open a DBus Explorer when running Etoys In Sugar and interactively start sending some messages to DBus. The API is documented at http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Low-level_Activity_API#Datastore
