my fault. I said Glipper, but I wanted to say *glipper-lite*, I used this sourcecode (posted in this thread)source:

Oh, right... Ttuuxxx made a glipper-lite called 1.0 Rolling Eyes
What version of GTK does 3.01 use? If it is 2.12 or greater you might as well apply my gtkbuilder patch too.

OK, it was pointed out in this thread that glipper/glipper-lite doesn't survive if you exit or restart jwm or whatever else is providing the tray notification area.

The fix is just two lines:
Code:

I think it's time to get my changes into svn. I'll see if I can look at that in the morning.

Sorry guys who downloaded it already: you'll have two menu entries now if you installed it over the top of an existing glipper.
I've capitalised the .desktop file name as is traditional in Puppy for some reason, and reuploaded.

I messed around with the sources to remove xml file dependency (converted with glade-2.12), but localization needs fixed now - LC_ALL wasn't defined, so I changed it to "C" so it would build.

(btw it is smaller than the puppy default one which is upx'd in /usr/local/bin)

changes:
used a gtk stock icon vs inline xpm
used gtk's builtin statusicon vs eggtrayicon
replaced preference xml with builtin code
refactored some code
fixed several error messages
fixed ability to change keybinding

todo? gtk's builtin accelerators for the keybindings

Dear technosaurus,

Perhaps you might know the answer to this. I compile glipper-lite using your build script and get the following runtime error:

Code:
GLib-ERROR **: /build/buildd/glib2.0-2.24.0/glib/gmem.c:137: failed to allocate 1852405539 bytes
aborting...
Aborted



I used Lucid and have all the required libs, I think....

With kind regards,
vovchik

Hi Technosaurus,

Ah, I'll have to look at that when I have some time. I was wanting to do that, and got some examples to copy, but never got around to it.

Oh, OK. I thought that version 0.95 didn't use xml in the first place, so you could just go back to it... guess I was imagining it.
Quote:

What sort of error messages? Compile-time or run-time? Were they serious?

I have put the other changes we made into SVN at http://code.google.com/p/glipper-lite, with a little more work done to be more consistent about changing the name to glipper-lite.

Your version doesn't have any of the renaming, so I guess it is based directly on the original glipper-lite code out of CVS. Is that right?

I actually pulled the full glipper and used its glade file in glade-2.12 (the last one to output C) to convert it to C but the C it generates is deprecated (just warnings) ... I should probably just fork and patch that version of glade to prevent needing to do this in the future.

glipper uses global variables for the widgets, so I combined the C files to make it simpler

I didn't find any good (simple) examples of setting global keybindings for a status icon popup, but if I do, it will go in my simple icon tray.

p.s. aside from the global keybinding (which could be assigned by the wm), all of glipper could be emulated with a small gtkdialog + sit app that uses xclip (I'll add it to my todo list for my sit suite along with battery, temperature, memory, cpu, volume, network, cups, save file and others - so we can have just 1 tray app and 1 shell daemon running)

How much of that space have you saved by disabling localization though? Wink

none AFAIK, I just changed the LC_ALL to "C" to get it to compile ... I'm sure I could get it back by watching a full build of the full glipper (though any localized glade files will need to be po'ed too, since those strings are now in source)

This probably doesn't mean anything in real life, but it is interesting that your version ("glipper" in the attached screenshot) seems to initially use more resources, I guess maybe because you replaced the xml with code.
After opening the history menu or the preferences dialogue mine uses exactly the same Sad and it doesn't drop down again after these are closed, either. I wonder if it would if I was running out of ram...

Quote:
fixed ability to change keybinding

I guess that only needed fixing because it broke in refactoring or something... it has always worked for me Smile

For the sake of the casual reader, other than the NLS, the only functional differences I can see between yours and mine are:
- your executable is standalone, so will still run without an xml file or an icon file.
- mine still works with older gtk versions e.g. in unmodified Puppy 4.x series
- mine doesn't load properly on my current up-to-date system when the system tray is provided by lxpanelx, which produces an `X Error: BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes)`. It runs fine with JWM.

You might want to look at clipbored...

For the record, compiling Technosaurus' version on my Arch system I needed to add this to the build script:
Code:
-lgdk-x11-2.0 -lX11 -lgobject-2.0 -lglib-2.0

Naturally the -lX11 can break it on older systems Rolling Eyes
I guess this is why people use autotools...
