Na I don't have an issue with Pwidgets, I actually like them, I'm just sticking up for the people who don't want them. I can see there points and would like to give them the best possible solution. well if they don't want them, and we all agree that fixmenus is slower on 4.2 than 4.12 or any other puppy to date, then a simple revert back to the earlier fixmenus and a kill that script in startup should do it. that should be easy, I'll work it out tomorrow, its late tonight.trio wrote:Ttuuxxx
Well there's a way too, move show-widgets from /root/startup folder, and that will make your start up with no widgets
Actually, I am a Gkrellm manp7.1 - pprocess (what, you didn't make your own conky-widget, Trap?)
Thats always been like that in icewm, nothing you can do about it, sorry.esmourguit wrote:Bonjour,
Using Icewm, when I try to delete multiple selected files, in one directory, with the mouse in Rox-Filer window, I have to move the mouse cursor outside the button "Yes", then back on the button to delete the following file. This does not happen with JWM.
Another thing, how to have multiple virtual desktops?

streamripper is 109kb (+21kb for the Man page) compiled. I'm not sure what zigbert script you refer to. Don't you just point to streamripper in streamtuner's config file?- Great job on streamtuner, But...shouldn't we include streamripper if it's an option in streamtuner? Or, get rid of the button? Streamripper will be a addon in repo hopefully if WhoDo says its ok, So removing the button would stop the addon from working, if we had extra space it maybe would of been included. Or if zigbert would come onboard and help, he could modify his small script to work out of the box.

Shouldn't those system links being built be a part of the icon switcher, really isn't that the only time when they need to be built? so basically a icon switcher with its own fixmenus, and when users want to do a regular fixmenus menus because they installed just 1 program, they shouldn't have to wait for like 200 icons to be check and linked right, if they are already there, then why rebuild them? and like I said only if your changing icon themes should the user have to wait for those links.zigbert wrote:To get it clear
fixmenus has NOTHING to do with Pwidgets.
What slows it down is that it builds symlinks in /root/my-applications/bin. This could better be a part of petget. - When installing a package, also add a symlink in /root/my-applications/bin. Be my guest.......

I don't prefer icewm but IMO, the menu looks a little too crowded with the icons stacked on top of each other.Here's a menu I put together tonight, comparing the flat orange and what the icewm only would look like by default,it wouldn't effect JWM menu at all.
Zigbert made a small stream recorder, only a few kb, if he made that work with streamripper it would save maybe 90kb out of that small package, If we had the extra space stream ripper would be a nice option.

Sydney is only a small dot on the Australian map, but its the Largest City by far, actually its around 1/4 Australia's total population, plus the Capital city Canberra ACT uses the same time. Unlike SouthPort which isn't the same time. I didn't even know Australia had a Southport,lol I knew about the one in the USA, what is the population of SouthPort, I bet its small.tasmod wrote:Wow, ttuuxxx, you really do need a lesson in diplomacy don't you?
I'm fully aware that the shutdown menu has been posted many times BUT assumed probably like everyone else that it would at least follow themes.
WorldTime had Sydney originally but was changed to Mickos Southport (to suit me) after Micko explained you upside down guys couldn't make your minds up about what time it was. What is it? Oh yes, 5-6 weeks and maybe time changes down there.
If you bothered to look in some of the pwidget configs you would see operational notes explaining how to change to whatever you require.
Me, I'll stick with GMT, we set it, we say so!!
Ok but to look professional on a world scale, I hope you aren't thinking that the timezones should be set by you and a couple of online chums do you? Really now, Things like Sydney, NewYork, London, Paris, Moscow, Shanghai, Tokyo are what users want, not how to learn and read up on using widgets and coding the changes, Think about new users and retired users who just want things to work out of the box.tasmod wrote:The three times I was interested in were Mickos, Trios and a friend in LA.
We chat via google off forum. Needed to know if they were asleep or not.
In the WorldTime config it explains how to alter GMT+ or - to display time you want.
I just write the odd widget, I can't say how Zigbert makes it interact.
I'm acutely aware of the CPU overhead and did my best to check the timings to ensure low usage.
Widgets are ready out of the box, but not customised.
A bit of detective work and you can lower cpu usage quite a bit. Timings are the key. Can't change 'clocks' they need the cycles but others refresh rate can be lenghtened at some sacrifice to usability.
