It is a bug:

Code: Select all

sh-3.00# pburn
cat: /tmp/pburn-burnlist_dir: No such file or directory
cat: /tmp/pburn-search: No such file or directory

** ERROR **: gtkdialog: Error in line 29, near token '</text>': syntax error

aborting...
Usage: file [-bcikLhnNsvz] [-f namefile] [-F separator] [-m magicfiles] file...
       file -C -m magicfiles
Try `file --help' for more information.
dd: opening `': No such file or directory
[1]+  Done                    "$APPDIR"/box_splash
Terminated
I didn't test with anything newer than 2.16

Thanks for bug report. You don't have cdrdao installed and didn't get the main copy-disc-dialog. With cdrdao installed you will be able to copy discs on-the-fly.
What's next Sigmund? A music file tag editor?
Well, I have (or had) a draft of a puppy music player. But in the end a realized, that what we need is not a player (already there), but a tool to organize songs and albums. When you have a tool like this, why not let it organize whatever.... :wink: This tool will integrate pfind. If I succeed... - and that is not sure. Since this is a new type of tool, there are no other to spy on. But, if I succeed, it will be the next generation of Pfind.

Ah - quite right. Sorry about that.

zigbert, just in case you don't know about it, there's a great little utility app in Puppy3 and Puppy4 named 'cddetect'. It's particularly nice for detecting if the drive tray is open or a cd/dvd not inserted.

Thank you Barry, I didn't know.

Is there a way to select a directory or file from another program or file manager and add it to the burnlist in pburn? I'm talking before pburn is even open. I was wanting to add a directory via another program to a temp file then execute pburn with that directory populated in the files to burn section.

BTW, I burned a dvd video today with pburn and the percentage output wasn't truncated like it was when I burned the cd iso. It was probably just some fluke thing.

from the helpfile:

Code: Select all

< Parameters >
Pburn accept 2 parameters from terminal:
-d dir    Start Pburn with alternative browser directory.
-i file    Import list (textfile) with filenames.
Is this what you need, or?

Thanks, that's exactly what I needed. Can't wait to try out 0.2, looks good.

in 0.2 when I add files it just shows the size and doesn't show the files themselves in the Files To Burn portion.

- Do you use the latest gtkdialog package: 0.7.20?
- Does it happen both from browser and search?
- Are the links in temporary dir made?
- Did you exit previous Pburn with 'quit-button' or from jwm ('X'-button)?

Additional Software (PUPs, n' stuff)

Thanks for nice program. I am using Pburn_0.1 with PuppyRus, and we plannig to translate this program in russian.

Yeah, I'm using gtkdialog 0.7.20 (in puppy 4 alpha 2). I'm not sure what happened but I just re-installed 0.2 and it's working just fine. Thanks for the program.

Could you also add the size of directories just like you did with the files, and maybe convert the size from kb's to mb's?

When we get this stable, next big upgrade will include language support.

The size calculating in 0.2 is the best I got with speed.

Code: Select all

find ....... -printf "%k kb|%f\n"

I have installed latest version of pburn (0.4) on Puppy 3.0.1. but... adding a file is not possible (in right pan nothing is showed) adding folders is possible, but these folders looks empties! in other words, i can add only folders but not files inside or single files outside

very strange behaviour...

I observed several times the same thing as Dingo with pburn .4 in Nop 3.01. Sorry I can't describe the sequence exactly, but when it happens it's hard toget it working again, maybe a couple of reboots.

Also, I don't quite understand about the temporary storage for CD burning, where the storage is, and how to increase it.

Having a good multi-purpose burning program is extremely attractive, and I appreciate the tireless work of Zigbert (and Nathan before), but these "simple" programs often baffle me. Barry's single function iso burner is an infallible pleasure to use, but I tend to go to windows to burn with the excellent DeepBurner to avoid surprises in routine data burning. Pburn's interface is elegant, as is Deepburner's, in which one simply drags files onto it.

Just a guess: Do you have tmp storage on a vfat partition. Trying to make a symbolic link on a vfat filesystem give me the error: Operation not permitted. Pburn uses the command 'cp -srpf file /tmp_dir'. How can I pass this?
