J'ai mis à jour le fichier po rapidement juste pour test et remarqué ces erreurs en me disant que, dès que la "gettextisation" sera achevée (ça ne saurait tarder!), comme convenu, nous allons ensemble peaufiner cette traduction et y apporter certaines corrections/modifications. Outre les fautes de frappe (et autres!), il me semble avoir vu, pour certaines phrases, sur le Frisbee de la Puplette de Petihar, des tournures plus convaincantes/précises que celles que j'ai trouvées...

Cordialement.

var02=`ifconfig`

var02=`ifconfig | tr '<' '(' | tr '>' ')'`

rerwin wrote:mavrothal & peebee, I think the ipinfo problem is caused by the output of ifconfig and the other assignments not being specified as strings, so they could be parsed as commands. The "<" and ">" characters are probably being treated as redirection. Seems like a security and integrity hazard, to me. I think all of those "var..." assignments should be double-quoted.

The preference seems like something I can try to add to frisbee.

Unfortunately is not very simple (for me) to double quote a variable that is the concatenation of other variables which are the output of the shell commands (var12 for example)

Frisbee is a little bit more convenient for setting/configuring a wireless network than the Dougal's GUI, but this one has not this inconvenience...

This works...

Code: Select all

  echo '<vbox><text><label>"'we will try \<\> this and see'"</label></text></vbox>'|gtkdialog -s

Note that I uploaded another version of the network_tray package on page 11. It has "integrated" icons and a script to switch between analog and wireless dialup icons.

As simple user, I really think it is important: every time I start my laptop (this may happen several times a day, because of tests I am doing with!) Frisbee automatically connect to an available public network.

• 1. Save profiles for only those networks you want to connect to, leaving the others at priority 0.
  
  2. If the less desired network is already in a saved profile, delete that profile.
  
  3. If you sometimes need the "stronger" public network, save its profile before saving the preferred network's profile.
  
  4. Adjust the relative priorities of the profiles so that the preferred networks have a higher (greater value) priority than the competitors in the same geographic area.
