A Front End to Grive [DEPRECATED]

Primary LanguagePython

Google-Drive-Panel is a front end for the command line Google Drive 
client Grive. Google Drive Panel lets you sync any folder with your 
Google Drive, it could be a folder under your home directory, or on
your desktop, or a whole partition. Best yet, it it can be named 
anything you like. It puts a icon in your panel, giving you basic 
controls over adding files and syncing files. 

Usage is simple, to start run 'google-drive-panel' (without  quotes)
into the terminal, follow setup, and close terminal. If you would like 
it to start at login, add 'google-drive-panel' to startup applications.

To install from Github source (on a debian system, because this makes a
deb package, otherwise just move files where they need to go):
git clone https://github.com/Benknis/Google-Drive-Panel.git
cd ./Google-Drive-Panel
sudo chown -R root google-drive-panel/
sudo chown -R :root google-drive-panel/
dpkg -b google-drive-panel/
Then just install with software center, or other means.

Google-Drive-Panel has been tested on the following 
Ubuntu 13.04
Ubuntu 12.10
Mint 15
May not work with other versions or distros. Feel free to modify to make
work on your computer.

	-Making a graphical install
