Ok.

Got it.
8)

No, not the application/function ---> the index list. :lol:

Some statistical data?

Here it is
(i do use German form instead of US form (we use "." to mark 1000s)):

- Index of first file: 100
- Index of last file: 59.159

- Number of all files: 59.059

- Number of lines in index file: 43.059

- Difference: 16.000


So as a first result, we have to accept, that murga-forum has lost 16.000 attached files!

Or in other words: 27,091 % of all files are lost (US form: 27.091%)
.
I will write now a script to sort this list into different lists, each for every file type (sfs, pet, archives (excluding .gz because of the fake .gz files), images etc.pp).

Ok,

index list sorted out (a bit).

Here some new statistical data (can include doubles though, because f.e. files like Whippet.png are currently listed in the png-list and also in the pet-list):

pet list: 10.354 files
sfs list: 260 files
gz list: 2400 files (this list contains also the sfs.gz files and surely the fake .gz)
tar.gz list: 4868 files
tgz list: 16 files (all doubles/wrong ---> not really one .tgz file available)
zip list: 1605 files

jpg list 10.893 files
png list: 10.894 files
tif list: 70 files (one file really ---> the rest are doubles)
xpm list: 61 files

Need to refine the script and get the whole list again ---> takes hours!

Hi RSH, could you ask the Germans to change to using the "comma" to indicate the thousands please? It is too confusing to use the "point". I hope the change will be easy. Thanks :-)

Do you mean to change it generally in our (the Germans) posts or somewhere inside LazY FReD? I'm not sure, what you mean.

Thanks.

Sorry - I meant the whole of Germany. It seems like you use the comma where we use the point and vice versa - Also you drive on the wrong side of the road... (I'm just joking of course...no offense intended...) :-)

Sorry for my weak English, I'm French and I use an online translator.

I appreciate the application Lazyred and I believe that this utility could soon be present in the majority of puplets.
In the meantime, I would modestly suggest some changes / developments ...

1 - With small screens (800x600), it is difficult to use because LazyFred GUI is too broad. Ideally, we should reorganize the interface to reduce the space needed when viewing the screen. This makes me think that Ziggy had done with the PPM Puppy.

2 - Users often struggle to understand how to use the application, in particular the update servers (and display of available packages). Is it possible to improve this? Not easy, because it involves automating the update of the display when changing server, I do not know but I'm a novice GTK.

In all cases, LazyFred is a great idea!

Thank you HSN.

Hello, ASRI éducation.

I'm sorry, bu I've now worked for about 16 Months almost every day several hours and sometimes up to 40 hours in a row on LazY Puppy and all "my" applications on the forum. I think, I need a break. I have to take a break.

A long term break from coding, working on the forum and also working on LazY Puppy. This might take a few months where I have to do different stuff from puppy - except: I want to use LazY Puppy, finally, within these break from coding etc.

So, we will see, when I'm back.

@ RSH
Hello RSH
I understand that you want to pause.
I renew my congratulations for your various contributions.
More ... Once you have finished your break!

Merci pour cette aide précieuse

Lazy Puppy please me more and more. And if there is a forum (even speaking english), it's wonderful.

Nice job.

I have created a update of LazY-FReD - now 2.0.0.

The GUI is now much smaller and it searches now for some more file types.

It searches now e.g. also for .exe (for provided Puppy Win-Installer files) and an editable list gives option to increase file types to search for.

Version 2.0.0 is now uploaded to the first post of this thread (older version is still available).

Hi RSH:

In your next update, would you consider expanding the size of the "Activated Server Address" box in order to see the full address. It appears some addresses are quite long, so they don't fit in your drop down box.

Thanks for the consideration. Nice application!

Best,

Slavvo67

Hi RSH,

I tried using AFI but it looks as if it is not intended for my intended usage - what I did was I booted from a live CD (no savefile), ran AFI, entered the intended Puppy name, typed the path to access an iso from my hard drive, clicked grub4dos and usb then clicked ok. I expected to see a message asking which usb drive I wanted to install to but this did not happen.

Instead I saw a message that said something like:
"Directory created"

then a message like:
"Something added to something /mnt/sr0"

I could not find any new directory created anywhere, and the CD drive did not appear to be mounted (and in any case i am hoping it would not try to write to my CD...)

Is AFI intended to allow a frugal install from an iso on hard drive to a blank (straight from shop) usb stick, controlled by a puppy running in RAM?

One other question - would it be possible to add a browse function to the iso choice field?

cheers!

hey, Rainer.

your excellent AFI script has been brought up here. any interest in developing it further?

how's the 64 bit stuff working out? (remember reading that's what you would be turning your attention to).


cheers

Further developing of AFI? As a Side-Job probably possible...

The 64 bit Stuff? Looks nice, but I'm waiting for the FatDog Release befor starting some work on it...

I didn't use it for a long time, so I need to make some testings before I can tell anything about it. Though it should be able to install from ISO to USB or HDD.

Adding a browse function to the iso choice field shouldn't make any problems.

Hi.

Since I' stumbling on this tonight by this topic, I decided to give some time to this tonight, so I have made an update of AFI Automated Frugal Installer to version 1.0.6.

If all works properly there should be these options.

- choose a drive/partition to install to
- choose ISO by File Selector
- start AFI by right-clicking an ISO file
- - all fields in the GUI will be filled with values then


I did not update the Help Page!
