Gvolicon - a lightweight volume icon in your system tray

Hello,

Some days ago whilst on vacation, I whipped up this lightweight and very simple volume icon. As some of you might have seen in my previous topic, this project is based on Fogobogo's gtk-vol and as such most of the features are the same:

• Easily change volume levels by scrolling on the icon

• Easily mute and restore the volume by clicking on the icon

• No right-click menu

Also see Gvolicon's help output:

  -v, --version              Display version and exit
  -d, --device               Device to use
  -m, --mixer                Mixer to use
  -u, --update-interval      Set update interval in seconds
  -s, --volume-step          Set volume step to increase or decrease the volume with
  -i, --symbolic-icons       Use symbolic icons

You can get Gvolicon in the AUR or you can get the code directly from GitHub.
