512 next version
I don't think "in your face" is the right approach for everybody so I have come up with an alternative,
Now tasmod created his firewall tray app which is very nice, (see here), works great for me and has version info included. It's not standard Puppy fare at the moment (but that could change) so I took the machete to some more of Barry's code ..( .. he may take the machete to me soon )
Now, the freememapplet_tray shows a tooltip (balloon for some) showing the size of your pupsave/partition and free space left over. If you click that it invokes 'partview'.. an app that shows your partitions and free space left, with a nice little bar graph. You may not know this because there is no indication.
I have added to the tooltip that clicking will invoke Partview. I have also added to Partview some version information, Puppy version and kernel.. referred to in the tooltip.
Note that this is my hacked version of Barry's freememapplet_tray with the stacked rings, as opposed to Barry's original with the single ring that slides up (well mostly down) the post.
The following .pet contains the newly compiled freememapplet_tray and the adjusted Partview.
Feedback please.
Cheers.
