clarf,

Will alienmanager run on other puplets? I just want to be sure I have my facts straight as I start setting up the apps/utilities section for 214X.

Thanks,
Sully

Hi Sully,

It should work fine in other puplets, because no additional libraries are needed just busybox and basic system tools.

It uses cpio, dd and some basic extraction tools like gunzip, bunzip2 and unzx to extract and list rpm packages. For deb extraction it uses busybox dpkg-deb.

In installation mode (the one used in Rox-Filer MIME), It calls petget after the extraction and pet conversion is done. It uses tar, gzip and tgz2pet for pet conversion.

Greetings,
clarf

Hi Guys here's a music player/Manager, you can even edit your song tags with it Smile

Its actually a very nice program, and I managed to make the pet under 1MB wow, lol I had to compile and include just a couple of libs, lol I also left the locals in Smile

libcdio-0.82-i386
libmad-0.15.1b-i386
libmodplug-0.8.7-i386
libnotify-0.4.4-i386
libsndfile-1.0.21-i386
taglib-1.6.1-i386
Plus I had to lower a few version numbers in the .configure script, but the end result was really good Smile

So enjoy
ttuuxxx

Ps also included the pragha-0.7.1.1-i386-libs-dev.pet which is just the all the dev files for all the files above Smile

So If you wanted to compile using those libraries you could.

That looks cool, will have to try it later.
libmad is not in 214X by default or it needed newer version?

I added everything to the one pet, that's why I'm amazed of the pet size, under 1mb and it contains all 7 packages Smile

That's amazing indeed, hey if it turns up it works good, maybe make it default audio player in next release? I haven't found which formats supports though

Yeah I found homepage, doesn't mention formats supported though. Good that bmp has ladspa plugins, I thought those are only used by aqualung. Default bmp equalizer is not that good though.

EDIT: Oh yeah I know it's only ~1 MB but I mirrored it:

I was playing with gamma settings in my laptop and I wanted to save the configuration from Monitor Gama Calibration application. I modified the calibrator to save these settings, then added a Startup Script to set gamma only if the configuration file exists.

I attach the updated gamma calibrator and the Startup Script, a little gift for Puppy 2 series users (I hope you like it. dejan555).

It works only for Puppy 2 series because the tkgamma calibrator is a tcl/tk application.

Thanks clarf, it works!
ttuuxxx, consider replacing this script in 214X
