Yes, they should but I might recompile some of them.

Hello, dejan555.
I hope you are well.
What would be the best urxvt (rxvt-unicode) to run on dpup-4.87, if we do not like or
need a tabbed terminal ? Something supple, that can open another window of itself
without making a fuss or issuing font (-fnt parameter) errors.
I tried compiling the latest rxvt-unicode-9.19, it didn't work in dpup-4.87 -- some
image lib was missing. * (see note)
Then, I tried installing the rxvt-unicode-ml_9.07-2+b1_i386.deb and then the
rxvt-unicode-lite_9.07-2+b1_i386.deb from the Debian Squeeze listing at pkgs.org,
without success. These ones seem to be allergic to any TTF mono fonts -- even if the
fonts are present in the dpup.
I ask because I have written many information scripts based on less. In UpupRaring
3.9.9.2 or most other Puppies, it is easy to issue a command in the form
Code: | urxvt -some_urxvt_parameters -e less -some_less_parameters SomeInformationFile.txt |
and it opens a separate urxvt window showing the info.
It seems I cannot do the same with mrxvt: the info shows in the same tab -- but not
always. mrxvt cannot spawn itself without the tabs, right?
Many thanks in advance for any reply.

PS * I was able to compile this latest urxvt 9.19-full in UpupRaring 3.9.9.2 yesterday
and it works beautifully there.

I'll try some emulators and reply again.
These days I'm trying to update gtk2 and dependent libs and compile latest gimp with python support and some plugins
EDIT: If you run it with Code: | mrxvt-full -e less... |
then it works, mrxvt is script to launch actual executable which is mrxvt-full
EDIT2: you can also fix it like this if you want to use just "mrxvt"
Overwrite mrxvt script with symlink to mrxvt-full
Code: | ln -sf /usr/bin/mrxvt-full /usr/bin/mrxvt |
Or fix script to run with any given parameters:
Code: | sed -i 's/$1/"$@"/' /usr/bin/mrxvt |

Billtoo I have had MJWIN on every machine I've ever owned and my mom has been hooked on it since 2000. When she finally got a Win7 box I created an XP VM just so she could play it.

Ok, I'll try that. Many thanks, dejan.

Got it! Thanks, dejan.
As you suggested, I simply made a link from mrxvt-full to mrxvt, and now something
like this:
Code: | #!/bin/sh
# nice-mrxvt.sh
####
mrxvt -aht -tr -tint grey50 -shade %3 +showmenu -e less --help |
looks something like that (see pic).
mrxvt's syntax is a bit different, that's all. The urxvt contraction -sh has to be spelled out
in full in mrxvt, and the percentage of shading stated with the % sign (e.g. -shade %5).
Also, in mrxvt the shading indication is the reverse of what it is in urxvt. In urxvt the
above would be stated "-sh 95".
Now to resaving the scripts in a language code that mrxvt can understand
(ISO-8859-1, not UTF8)!
Again, thanks. BFN.

Looks cool musher0, I have a transparent/tabless/scrollbarless mrxvt for weechat too. (0.4.4-dev version, it's in dpup486 pets)
Earlier version of urxvt (I think 9.15) compiles on dpup but something doesn't work right.
I always loved Xmahjongg, it's simple but has many layouts and themes to choose from I even made that little gui to choose which ones to load, my favorite combo is boar-dorothys-green

Gimp 2.8.10 is finally compiled, but before it installs we'll have to do an update of gtk and some libraries. I was thinking easiest way would be to apply a delta file to main sfs instead doing a full iso, it's 13 MB and easy to apply.
For gimp, I'm thinking of making sfs with python+other extra scripts and plugins (GMIC is also compiled and working nicely )
I'll upload update and files tomorrow.

Dpup 487 Update 1
EDIT: After you apply this update you can proceede to Update 2
Attached is a script to download delta files and update main dpup sfs or devx. (assuming you use frugal install)
Download it, unpack and make executable, move in executable path
Code: | gunzip update.sh.gz
chmod +x update.sh
mv update.sh /root/my-applications/bin |
Then open console in directory containing dpup-487.sfs or dpup-devx_487.sfs and run one of these commnads:
Code: | #Run this to update dpup-487.sfs:
update.sh main
#Run this to update devx:
update.sh devx |
What's updated?
gtk2 is updated to latest with pango/cairo/pixbuf/libpng and other needed libs
mtpaint and geany updates are included
Also gimp 2.8.10 is added to repo but it will not run without these updates.
Note: After this update I had some apps output glib warnings in console but I had not experienced any problems.
Gimp packages:
There's a full sfs here: Gimp-2.8.10-dpup487_487.sfs 28.2 MB
Contents:
Python 2.8.10 (for python-fu scripts support)
Gimp 2.8.10 with babl/gegl dependencies
Plugins: gmic, david's batch processor and wavelet-decompose
Script packs: FxFoundry pack, Elsamuko scripts, Silicosaur effects and kaleidoscope script
Individual pets used for update and separate gimp packs are also uploaded to repo.

I applied the updates and everything is working fine so far, conky is
taking a little more screen space after the update.
Thanks

Hmm, are the fonts bigger?
freetype and fontconfig are also updated, maybe that's why conky takes more space, something might have changed there.
Didn't notice any change in fonts in gtk apps.
