Yes it can be compiled without; and what would be missing is JPEG2000 image format (file extensions .jp2, .jpc, .j2k).

(The old libstdc++.so.5.0.6 is an symlink, i won't work)

We can't mount partition etx4 (in akita)

cat /proc/filesystems

PupSnap 1.61. does all I have been missing. It is now a useful and convenient tool.

Acidentially, I took this snapshot for you sc0ttman.

And entirely OT: The words "Knapp" and "Neuere" make no sense at all. This is German alright, but I have no clue, what it could mean here.
I'll see if I find a Puppy on my setup without German localisation and check what it says in English.

Brief prevents the filer logging a message every time it does something. Use this to speed things up if large numbers of messages are being logged.

I tested it and it works on akita.
I'll post it tomorrow.

I think I can solve the problem with zathura_gui
with a simple test command. I will simply
test to check if the variable is a file.
I'll work on it tonite.

There is a small error in x.x.68 that prevented a nothreads compile (even in gtk2), but I moved the necessary code to where it was needed and voila, their favorite paint program only uses ~8mb of RAM. I doubt many would want a nothreads gtk1 version, but I can make my hack into a proper patch if need be.

... I don't think my 73kb pet of mrxvt had NLS enabled but you can check it out here:

here are my notes on how to get numbered tabs in mrxvt

Code: Select all

---
+++ mrxvt-0.5.4/src/init.c ..........set tabs to numbers
    /*
     * Set the tab title
     */
    if (IS_NULL(title)){
		title = DEFAULT_TAB_TITLE;
		sprintf(title,"%d",r->ntabs);
	}
