Script to grab SRWare Iron
Iron is more or less a fork of the google chrome browser without writing home to mama..
Well I wanted Iron, sure, you can go here and find it download it, untar it bla, bla.
This script is an attempt to grab it and make a pet out of it. It is NOT fully automatic, it requires some knowledge of the command line and perhaps knowledge of how to use dir2pet. The script is well commented, so before you use it open it up with a right click.
Iron site.. http://www.srware.net/software_srware_iron.php
Extract the script to a suitable location, /root is fine. Right click on the script and open with your text editor. Read it. There are points in there you might want to change, such as the DLDDIR, the download directory, default is /mnt/home, so as not to use too much pupsave.
Be sure to check the Iron website for the latest version.
Be aware of the different versions for different arches, p2-32bit, 32-bit and 64-bit. Read the comments.
NOTE: Iron only works on late a model glib, I know it will work in Lupu and not sure about Quirky, but Barry did upgrade lots of stuff. I'll test later and let you know. EDIT: Aha, quirky needs gconf, see my next post.
Invoke the script (if you saved in /root) in a terminal with the command
The script will pause for a few seconds then download Iron with wget.
Once the the thing is downloaded you can use the suggestions to answer the dir2pet questions. You can have the script open to read while it is working, even add your own comments for later reference.
A bit of hacking and an sfs could be made too. Be my guest, hack, improve,
Have fun

. This script could be adapted to any static browser or other package, and I'm sure I'm not the first to make something similar.
