PCManFM 1.2.3 compiled for Tahrpup64

#1 Post by gyro »

Here is a .pet of the current 'PCManFM-1.2.3' compiled on Tahrpup64.
It includes a compiled 'libfm-1.2.3' and 'libmenu-cache' from ubuntu via PPM.
It should run without any extra downloads.
It should produce a menu entry under 'Filesystem'.

This project provides PCManFM on Tahrpup64, and has it 'fit-in' with a Rox desktop.
I have not tried to make desktop menus available in PCManFM. With Rox, just right click any space on the desktop.
I have not tried to make partitions available as bookmarks. Instead there is a .pet to enable the Puppy desktop drive icons to open the dierctory in PCManFM.
In a similar vein, there is a .pet so that an auto-mount, e.g. when a .iso file is clicked, opens the directory in PCManFM.
Both these .pet's will only use PCManFM if they find a PCManFM icon on the desktop.

Limitations of this implementation:
1) Partitions do not appear in left pane, hence the patched "drive_all".
2) No access to the application menus.
3) No "running as root" nag.

Install:
1) Download http://www.fishprogs.software/puppy/tah ... -1.2.3.pet(1.3MiB).
2) Click on downloaded file to install.

Install optional use with desktop drive icons:
1) Download http://www.fishprogs.software/puppy/tah ... fm-0.1.pet(7.3KiB).
2) Click on downloaded file to install.
3) Refresh existing icons with "Desktop"->"Desktop drive icons manager".
4) Drag "/usr/share/applications/pcmanfm.desktop" to desktop, if not already there.

Install optional use with auto-mount:
1) Download http://www.fishprogs.software/puppy/tah ... fm-0.2.pet(3.9KiB).
2) Click on downloaded file to install.
3) Drag "/usr/share/applications/pcmanfm.desktop" to desktop, if not already there.

While this was compiled on Tahrpup64 6.0.3.5, I have tried it on Tahrpup64 6.0.3.7 and it works for me.
