6548bee56c cookbook: Added id for section in "rotating an actor" recipe
Added an id to a section in the "rotating an actor" recipe,
so that it can be referred to from the "reusing an animation"
recipe.

82ab00930b cookbook: Simplified and clarified example code
Modified the "animation reuse" sample code to provide
a simpler example to explain in the recipe.

Also modified variable names to mirror the names used
for the previous "complex animation" example and added
some more comments, to further simplify and support the
recipe.

d7a3e35f46 cookbook: Cleaned up the "animations reuse" example
With some help from pippin, moved variable declarations
into more sensible positions within their functions,
changed a function name, and found a better way
to unref a script once its associated actor has
been destroyed.

d4190cbf8c cookbook: Refactored reusable animation example
Extracted the animation into its own JSON definition,
then create a new script and get the animation each
time a rectangle is clicked.

Removes the need to reparent onto the background and
copy property values to the rectangle after the animation,
and generally much cleaner.

acc28cf60c cookbook: Added example for animation reuse recipe
Added an example showing how to reuse a ClutterAnimator
instance to animate multiple actors at different times
using an animatable rig, combined with reparenting.

4ee05f8e21 keysyms: Update the macros to CLUTTER_KEY_*
The keysyms defines in clutter-keysyms.h are generated from the X11 key
symbols headers by doing the equivalent of a pass of sed from XK_* to
CLUTTER_*. This might lead to namespace collisions, down the road.
Instead, we should use the CLUTTER_KEY_* namespace.

This commit includes the script, taken from GDK, that parses the X11
key symbols and generates two headers:

  - clutter-keysyms.h: the default included header, with CLUTTER_KEY_*
  - clutter-keysyms-compat.h: the compatibility header, with CLUTTER_*

The compat.h header file is included if CLUTTER_DISABLE_DEPRECATED is
not defined - essentially deprecating all the old key symbols.

This does not change any ABI and, assuming that an application or
library is not compiling with CLUTTER_DISABLE_DEPRECATED, the source
compatibility is still guaranteed.

01362effca actor: Add a method for querying key focus

71a4db6135 animation: Allow detaching an animation from an actor
When animating an actor through clutter_actor_animate() and friends we
might want forcibly detach the animation instance from the actor in
order to start a new one - for instance, in response to user
interaction.

Currently, there is no way to do that except in a very convoluted way,
by emitting the ::completed signal and adding a special case in the
signal handlers; this is due to the fact that clutter_actor_animate()
adds more logic than the one added by clutter_animation_set_object(),
so calling set_object(NULL) or unreferencing the animation instance
itself won't be enough.

The right way to approach this is to add a new method to Clutter.Actor
that detaches any eventual Animation currently referencing it.

655c60aaa9 cookbook: Added recipe for complex animation
Uses ClutterAnimator to implement a reasonably complex
animation of a single actor (movement along a path with
simultaneous scaling).

Provides a metaphor for thinking about ClutterAnimator
animations (stage directions) and explains keys and key
frames in some depth. Also compares ClutterAnimator
with other possible approaches to this type of animation
(implicit animations, ClutterState).

60ff660d42 cookbook: Added a second example to show "overlapping" transitions
Added another JSON example to show how transitions can
be easily overlapped when using ClutterAnimator (two
sequences of 5 transitions, simultaneous with two
sequences of 1 transition).

Modified the C JSON loader program so it can be used with
this example as well.

Intel CE3100 and CE4100 have several planes (framebuffers) and a
hardware blender to blend the planes togeteher to produce the final
image.

clutter_cex100_set_plane() lets you configure which framebuffer clutter
will use for its rendering.

12a5bf2e06 offscreen-effect: Rename create_target to create_buffer
*** This is an API change ***

The create_target() virtual function should return a CoglHandle to a
texture; clutter_offscreen_effect_get_target(), instead, returns a
CoglMaterial to be painted in the implementation of the paint_target()
virtual function.

Instead of equating textures with materials, and confusing the user of
the API, we should mark the difference more prominently.

First of all, we should return a CoglMaterial* (now that we have that
as a public type) in get_target(); having handles all over the place
does not make it easier to distinguish the semantics of the virtual
functions.

Then we should rename create_target() to create_texture(), to make it
clear that what should be returned is a texture that is used as the
backing for the offscreen framebuffer.

6c40b10083 cookbook: Added recipe for signal handling in ClutterScript
Added a recipe explaining how to connect signals to handlers
in the JSON definition used by ClutterScript; also shows
how to connect the signals in code once the JSON has been
loaded.

Includes guidelines on writing handlers (i.e. need to use
-export-dynamic and non-static functions) and example
which connects a handler for motion events on a rectangle.

b532f95917 cookbook: Added introduction to and recipe on ClutterScript
Wrote an introduction to using ClutterScript with JSON. Focus
is on explaining why you might want to use it, basic principles
of operation (with annotated JSON sample), and how to map
data types from C to JSON.

code) showing how to load a JSON file and retrieve objects
from it in code.

81481cd803 cookbook: Added recipe for handling pointer events on an actor
Added a recipe about handling enter, leave, and motion events
on an actor.

Gives some pointers to data available from motion events,
explains a bit about stage-relative and actor-relative coords,
and covers how overlapping actors and reactivity of actors
can affect events occurring.

Examples include a simple scribble app showing how to integrate
pointer events into a more useful context.
