roxrightclicks
This package adds loads of extra options for file actions in rox when you right-click on a file. The actions are only enabled for filetypes that it would be sensible to use them on. (no option to open an mp3 in mtpaint etc.)
The options use icons symlinked to the desktop theme, so if you change the theme the icons will update automatically.
The pet is supplied with the links pre-built for puppy-4.1.2 in english if you are happy with this then you do not need to run the Rox-Right-Clicks application to regenerate the options.
The roxapp application that generates the right click options is in /root/my-roxapps. If you use a language other than english or would like to include options for extra applications you have installed then click on the roxapp It will take a couple of minutes to check your system and rebuild the options, you should see a progress window whilst it is running.
The pet contains over 600 symlinks so it takes a minute or so to install.
Dependencies
To get the Wallpaper and Trash options working I have had to bug fix those roxapps, you should upgrade the applications below if you are using puppy 4.1.2 or less.
direct link wallpaper-0.5.1.pet
thread http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewto ... 481#263481
and
direct link Trash-0.3.3.pet
thread Trash Roxapp - Discussion Document
Zigbert also added an option to Pfind to enable the search here option, you will need to ensure you have at least
direct link pfind-4.6.pet
thread Pfind 4.6
and
direct link pfilesearch-1.11.pet
thread Pfilesearch 1.11
The "Add to Pmusic Playlist" requires an upgrade to Pmusic, look at the Pmusic thread here Pmusic Pmusic 0.5.2 is supposed to support "add to playlist" though it may still be buggy.
