We have heard a lot lately about projects aimed at bringing all that eye candy of operating systems such as OS X to the Linux world. Projects such as Xgl, Enlightenment, and others have given us a glimpse of what's coming, but what can you do to enjoy a taste of some of the futureĀ
today?

For those who don't know, enlightenment_remote is an ipc tool being built for e17. As anonmynous mentioned it's not pretty - all totally command line at the moment, but that's because it's still in development :-) There will be pretty configuration GUIs for all of this once the guts have been completed.
The only thing that has to be manually configured via file editing at the moment is files listing icons (like those that appear in the ibar), but maybe that also got a GUI config tool recently... It wasn't exactly computer science though, just a matter of inserting the icon filename into a ".order" file in a directory corresponding to the application. Definitely worth it to get a preview of e17!
