Advert-Blocker 0.5
version 0.4 is giving me an error
I selected all the list and I tried to update
After some time, a dialog box popped up showing that none has been selected
And, after some seconds when I closed the first box, another dialog popped up saying, all are updated
But when I checked the Hosts, I find that nothing is updated

Yad pet is here:
http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=58306
for my version all you need to do is have yad output to stdout any combination of ...
1 2 3 4 5
and place it into
`Xdialog ... ...`
zenity/yad break compatibility with the standard dialog formats that dialog, cdialog, xdialog, whiptail and kdialog all basically share in common ... so it would need to be recoded ... but you can always use the dialog version from a terminal (just get rid of the checking for DISPLAY and set DIALOG to dialog)

Thank you technosaurus, that's even better (using just the terminal). I don't know bash (or whatever scripting language). I left it like this:
and it showed the dialog fine in the terminal, downloaded and created fine /tmp/adlist1 to /tmp/adlist4 but then just left a blank /etc/hosts and also didn't delete those temporary files.
I have safely backed up my original hosts file so no worry regarding this. I have dos2unix installed too.
Code: Select all
#!/bin/sh
DIALOG=dialog || DIALOG=dialog
for x in `$DIALOG --stdout --checklist "Choose your ad blocking service(s)" 0 0 4 1 "mvps.org" ON 2 "systcl.org" ON 3 "technobeta.com" ON 4 "yoyo.org" ON |tr "/" " " |tr '\"' ' '`; do
case $x in

What version of Puppy are you using? Did you run in from the terminal and read its errors?sinc wrote:same error here. v.4 not working right.chrismt wrote:version 0.4 is giving me an error
Did previous versions work?
Cos 0.4 works fine for me - I can't actually get it to fail on Puppy 4.2.1 ...

sc0ttman,
You have not full applied my fixes.
The problem is that a line like this can break things:
cat /etc/hosts /tmp/adlist{1,2,3,4} |grep ^[1-9] |sed '/^$/d' |sed "s/\t/ /g"|sed '/^#/d' |sed 's/ / /g' |dos2unix -u |sort |uniq > /etc/hosts
You need to do it like this:
ETCHOSTS="`cat /etc/hosts /tmp/adlist{1,2,3,4} |grep ^[1-9] |sed '/^$/d' |sed "s/\t/ /g"|sed '/^#/d' |sed 's/ / /g' |dos2unix -u |sort |uniq`"
echo "$ETCHOSTS" > /etc/hosts

sorry, that was my bad - you can't (or at least shouldn't) pipe a file back to itself (possible endless loop) - ... switched to using an original backup instead - fix posted below original code

Whoops.. Updated to 0.5, all fixes added (i think!)BarryK wrote:sc0ttman,

0.5 should work fine again now.

Version 5 is working but I am not sure if it downloaded all the 4 ticked lists because when i click the EDIT button, I can only see a few blocked address
I think, just think, it is only downloading a single list not every lists
I wish someone verified this
Thanks anyway for this cool Pet
Perhaps you could download each list separately, copy the lists each time to a new text file and compare the results.chrismt wrote:[Version 5 is working but I am not sure if it downloaded all the 4 ticked lists because when i click the EDIT button, I can only see a few blocked address

Technobeta has around 2,000 results, as does Yoyo, while the others have more like 20,000 entries..
After selecting and downloading all fours lists, I get a total of around 30,300 entries.
Or you could comment out the line in the 'cleanup' function, to see each downloaded list. (The line to comment out starts with the 'rm' command, followed by a list of the 4 downloaded ad list files).

Logo for Advert-Blocker
Dear scottman et al.,
Here is a nice logo for the gtkdialog script that you might consider using
With kind regards,
vovchik
PS. Thanks for the app.

I am not a designer or anything and I am not sure if modifying an icon is pirating
I am impressed with both these icons of Adblock and AdThwart
You must think about making a logo similar in nature, like red color because the color red has become to symbolize ad-blocking for some time
If it is not pirating, then modifying these icons with Puppy logo can do good.

Nice icons, good stuff... Barry K also made one, which is in Woof, I wonder what that looks like..
Would need them all to compare..
Also, is 0.5 working for everyone?
I'm not entirely sure I fixed it right, although as I said earlier, it seems to always work in 4.2

I updated all the list and I counted the number of blocked lines and it is around 29452
I guess, this is what you will get if you update all the lists
Thanks!
Yep, thats very close indeed to what I got last time I updated...chrismt wrote:My problem with Puppy AdStopper in Puppy 5.1 seems to have fixedsc0ttman wrote:

Hope not to be hacking this forum thread, but I'm interested in technosaurus' version because it can be run even from the cli. The latest version still didn't work, it creates a /tmp/adlist{1,2,3,4} but it's empty and so its links too.
Code: Select all
root@debian:/tmp# ls -l
total 1460
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 618540 Ago 18 14:45 adlist1
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 Set 3 18:35 adlist{1,2,3,4}

that is odd - could it be that your /bin/sh is pointing to dash?fyujj wrote:Code: Select all

I thought it was standard behavior to expand adlist{1,2,3,4} to adlist1 adlist2....

Yes, I'm in Debian.technosaurus wrote:that is odd - could it be that your /bin/sh is pointing to dash?
I have bash installed too and it's the default interactive shell as set in /etc/adduser.conf (I saw that in Debian's wiki and confirmed here).
Also, just for information, /bin/sh.distrib links to bash:
Code: Select all
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 4 Ago 13 21:48 sh -> dash
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 4 Jul 28 23:03 sh.distrib -> bash
-edit: I tried both scripts (the first one and the second one that has the extra option to disable adblock) with /bin/bash. They both created empty files in /etc/hosts (the first directly and the second by linking to an empty /etc/hosts.adblock). The difference to when using dash is that the script this time deleted the downloaded files in /tmp while with dash they were kept there.
I left the script like this:
and it doesn't create anymore /tmp/adlist{1,2,3,4}. The four files are in /tmp
but /etc/hosts.adblock and /etc/hosts are blank.
Code: Select all
#!/bin/bash
