Can anyone tell me how to get this wonderful SFSdirload, with which you can import whole dirs in one click (yes: on the fly) for 4 series get working in 5 ?

Or change the pet ?

Nancy,

which pup5 are you using? I just tried it in
p525 & it worked fine.

Thanks again Muggins for testing.

Don't know what I am doing wrong, but does not work anymore.

Tried several Lupu's amongst which 525, still no luck.

Says "sfs succesfully loaded" but nothing to be seen, not even after restarting X.

You could try running it from the commandline & see what errors are thrown up. Just open a console & enter sfsdirloader, then select a directory.

The only other thing I can think of is that perhaps some of the sfs files are incompatible, e.g. sfs3 rather than sfs4. Can you mention some that used to work with SFSdirload, and pup4, but not pup5?

Works indeed in lupu 5 dunno what I did differently from previous time, but, worked this time. Razz
