Hi.

This is PaDS 1.0.2 ---> convert and merge (P)ET (a)nd (D)EB into a single (S)FS

More Information and link to the Program here!

Direct link to download page ---> .pet is at the end of the post

Changes:

1.0.2

- entry in .desktop file fixed
- right-click option added ---> must somehow get lost

Hi.

I have found that this version has a wrong entry in its .desktop file. The entry is:

Exec=pets2sfsgui

The entry has to be:

Exec=/usr/local/pd2sfsgui/petsNdebs2sfsgui

This seems to be happened because pets2sfsgui is a symbolic link to /usr/local/pd2sfsgui/petsNdebs2sfsgui inside my private LazY Puppy Version.

---

Because of no one did complain (44 downloads since Oct. 15) I assume all did use it the way I do - with right-click action.
That's surely a lot more comfortable than to use the GUI.

Will upload a "fixed" version soon ---> even though there seems to be no need for a hurry.

HI RSH !

Tested PaDS tool today (first time ) .

Cool app . Makes live a lot easier ( ..as it should be )

Should have tested it earlier before ...

Thanks !!

Thank you backi.

Although I wrote this Program and its installed in my private Version of LazY Puppy, I don't use it very much.
I have to and also want to edit the .desktop files (for a German menu) of each and every application and therefor I mostly put parts together manually.

But, yes, you're right:

Hi RSH,

Thanks for the great tool. But unless I've missed it may I suggest/request a hopefully easy to add modification. Currently I can only add one pet/deb at a time to the list to be processed. But like the situation you faced when you were inspired to create PaDS, on a couple of occasions I had to include a substantial number of pets/debs. Would it be possible to point PaDS to a directory and have it include for processing all the files in that directory: sort of like ffmpeg-convert does?

Thanks in advance.

Hi mikestr!

The PaDS includes a file: /root/.config/rox.sourceforge.net/OpenWith/.inode_directory/Combine to SFS

So, why not just doing a right-click on a directory containing deb and pet files?

Or doesn't it work?
