pFind 6.3
Did a quick test on Raring-5.6.94.
3 consecutive search & export results - no hangs, so far.
The older version sometimes (not always) froze on export.
Can you also make a deb package, or just show a strictly Debian structure? I like pfind and want to install it in my self made Debian Live builds.
Thank you in advance.

Never mind, Fredx has already taken care of pfind.deb:

I think, I can repack it.

As far as I know, animations in the Puppy environment is doable, but troublesome:MyPuppysaysWauWau wrote:I (only I?) like a animated figure as a search assistant. Accidentally in XP there is a dog, looks so nice as Puppy .
It would be neat to get the same dog. But maybe it could be too difficult to integrate it?
- pFind itself can loop images to show an animation, but this requires too much of the systems resources.
- Gif animations are supported, but these doesn't look good,
- Libsvg does not support animated vector code, and this is the logic approach as I see it.
An even if we could support animations, I feel certain that many users would be against it, as it WILL occupy a noticeable part of the cpu.

exclude keep sticked on /initrd/pup_*
Hi Sigmund,
many thanks for that more and more handy app !
Here cannot modify the exclude path (not present in /root/.pfind/pfindrc ... ) ... it was already the case in 5.11: i tried to modify the path through the menu File/configure/general thumbnail and "modify search options" .. but pfinds exclude path keeps sticked on *initrd/pup_*
Any other way to set the path ?
Cheers, Charlie

hello im using pfind 5.11 and there is a problem that pfind/func -build_treeitems needs to use separate file that is not being monitored to prevent slow down of displaying a large number of search results. i modified it to start with:
it was very noticable on my system, if you actually change this i was guessed you might want to instead change the tree to monitor pfind-treeitems-final because that is a better than the x name but you'd have to modify 2 files
i also had an issue using Open with TextEditor and had to set it to use this script instead of a texteditor (this might have been fixed in 5.12 though):
Code: Select all
-build_treeitems)
>/tmp/pfind-treeitems$PROGPID
>/tmp/pfind-treeitemsx$PROGPID
... #original code but using the x name
mv /tmp/pfind-treeitemsx$PROGPID /tmp/pfind-treeitems$PROGPID
;;
i also had an issue using Open with TextEditor and had to set it to use this script instead of a texteditor (this might have been fixed in 5.12 though):
Code: Select all
#!/bin/sh
for a in $@
do b=$(readlink $a)
defaulttexteditor "$b" & rm $a
done

I've been using Pfind for years and its always getting better, I only have one issue with it, When I copy text from a console and paste it in pfind in the search box, usually it copies the text already in the search box "Search text" and paste that, then I have to delete the "Search text" and recopy the text and paste it. I would like to see the "Search text" removed. would make life much easier.

I have added this line 165 to /usr/local/pfind/pfind, and it works for me.
Does it meet your request?

Worked best without the search text,Too bad you couldn't have a search box over a image in the background that said "Search text" , But really do you need that text, I've been using it all day without and loving it:). Everyone knows what a search box is for, Or have the text above it. Heck I could make you you a Image for it,
