Firefox106 bugfix002

there was a small bug in my Firefox 1.0.6 roxapp wrapper
MSG was sometimes not being set
this bugfix makes sure that MSG gets set
at the top of the wrapper script

i think the only thing the bug was affecting
was the splash-screen message box when Firefox starts

Inkscape 0.42

Inkscape is an open source drawing tool with capabilities similar to Illustrator, Freehand, and CorelDraw that uses the W3C standard scalable vector graphics format (SVG)

http://www.inkscape.org/

copy install-inkscape-here to where you want to install it and click to download and install

this downloads another 10 meg file
Inkscape requires about 43 megs of hard drive space to install

Edit: Nov 10, 2005 - uses busybox's rpm2cpio

Mplayer /opt Bugfix

this fixes the bug that mplayer doesn't start if /opt does not exist (not really a bug, i just assumed all Puppy's had /opt)

if mplayer is already installed, just click the dotpup
to install the bugfix

An IceWM theme loosely based on the XPDE window manager. Since I have never actually used XPDE, it is not completely accurate. For the full theme effect you should also download the icons I posted earlier. Screen Shot

Remember Rick Dangerous?

Way before Lara Croft, back in the 1980's and early 1990's, Rick Dangerous was the Indiana Jones of computer games, running away from rolling rocks, avoiding traps, from South America to a futuristic missile base via Egypt and the Schwarzendumpf castle.

xrick is a clone of Rick Dangerous

Open Office Launcher
While I like to have shortcuts to frequently used applications, I don't like to clutter my desktop with multiple icons for different Open Office applications. This is a little RoxApp that I wrote to help eliminate desktop clutter, but still provide easy access to the most common Open Office features. It should work with Chubby Puppy 1.0.4 and Puppy 1.0.4 with OOo installed as a PupGet.

From the ReadMe:

Nice program Dan for us Chubby Puppians



It integrates OO right into the desktop

I am trying to understand how you have done this
using the Rox manual
/usr/local/apps/ROX-Filer/Help/Manual.html

and your own shell program which seems very clear
There seems to be a .DirIcon or other program that is running somehow that I am missing.

Can you tell us a little about the program (perhaps in a seperate thread) and how it is created?

I will make a wiki news item as soon as posting this

The Rox help file does a pretty good job of explaining things. That's how I learned anyways. Basically there are three main files. The first "AppRun" is the main script file that does all the work. The second "AppInfo.xml" defines the items that show up when you right click the icon. The third ".DirIcon" is just a image that becomes the icon for the app. If you add the ".jpg" extension to the file name you will see the image.
