<p class="p">Using the specbuttons plugin, you can define additional
	shortcuts. This is meant as convenience - allows to start
	other audio apps or system ontrols from within streamtuner2.</p>
<p class="p">The settings list can be found with th plugin options in the
	<span class="key"><kbd>🔌 Features</kbd></span> tab.  It follows the layout of the player/recording
	configuration.  Except that it lists icons and their according
	action commands:</p>

<div class="region"><div class="contents"><p class="p">Note that the icon name can also be that of a Gtk-builtin icon. Their
        names always start with "<span class="app">gtk-</span>", for example "<span class="app">gtk-cancel</span>". You can
        find a list of all available builtins under
        <span class="link"><a href="http://www.pygtk.org/pygtk2reference/gtk-stock-items.html" title="http://www.pygtk.org/pygtk2reference/gtk-stock-items.html">http://www.pygtk.org/pygtk2reference/gtk-stock-items.html</a></span>.</p></div></div>

<div class="hgroup"><h2 class="title"><span class="title">PNG icons</span></h2></div>
<div class="region"><div class="contents">
<p class="p">In case you enter something like "<span class="app">player</span>", the icon name will be
	searched for and expanded to an absolute PNG filename. For example
        "<span class="file">totem</span>" might become <span class="file">/usr/share/icons/HighContrast/16x16/apps/totem.png</span>.</p>
<p class="p">This won't always yield the exact icon / theme / or size you wanted. So it's
	sometimes necessary to look up the complete path yourself.</p>

</div></div>
<div id="placeholders" class="sect"><div class="inner">
<div class="hgroup"><h2 class="title"><span class="title">Commands</span></h2></div>
<div class="region"><div class="contents">
<p class="p">You can define any graphical or commandline application to be
        invoked by your custom toolbar button. Foremost you want to invoke
        audio controls of course, or start/stop players.</p>
<p class="p">Placeholders like %title and %url or %pls and %m3u are supported
	for all commands as well. So you can have additional play/record
	shortcuts.</p>
</div></div>
</div></div>
<div id="" class="sect"><div class="inner">
<div class="hgroup"><h2 class="title"><span class="title">icon rows</span></h2></div>
<div class="region"><div class="contents">
<p class="p">With the "number of rows" setting, more buttons can be packed together.
	It looks okay with up to 3 rows - when using the large sized main toolbar.
	The defined icon shortcuts will always be packed column-wise.</p>
<div class="note note-bug" title="Bug"><div class="inner"><div class="region"><div class="contents"><p class="p">The icon list isn't ordered. So you cannot
        define which button appears first. (Albeit the plugin config
        definition can be changed from 'dict' to 'table' now, and the plugin
        required just a little editing then.)</p></div></div></div></div>
