Hi, jpeps.
Before coming to the point, let me say: i post links in this post because for you. So you can easily reach the threads posts to re-read. It's not intended for other users/readers/members --> please, do not waste your time on that.
Ok, jpeps. Now to the point.
No, I'm not flaming Flash --> why should I?.
No, I did not post it as my app (I just posted one of the two scripts and named the changes).
No, I'm not consequently chest-beating --> even though there are
some reasons to do so.
No, it was not (only) a (one) feature i seemed to need (it has been a lot of suggestions of mine)
No, I did not made such a ruckus that Flash had to shut down the thread.
As you can see (read), Flash did lock the thread after your post - not after mine. So, to tell the truth: we both made some ruckus.
I'm going to lock this thread for a while in the hope that you two will cool off enough to let this go.
The whole thing has been something like a misunderstanding, because you did not post that you meanwhile had discovered and fixed the bug. Instead you did made an edit of your previous post that has not been noticed by me and so i did post a second post that your script fails and my "fixed" script did work.

$dir is just the directory name selected in the gui entry box. You're already in that directory, so there's no need to copy with $dir$files. You can't copy files from an SFS that hasn't been mounted.
Oh...I see the bug. /tmp/list has the "/" included.

First: I think this, my second post, did hurt somehow the pride of yours (maybe thinking about me as a annoying newbie or something like that)
Second: if you would have made a post instead of editing your previous one, i would have noticed it and would not made my second post and surely did immediately removed the script - as for the reasons i have had listed in the thread here --->
I was willing to remove the script (including my modifications) after you publish your fixed .pet because just to prevent users to destroy the fixed gnewpet by downloading and installing this script. There has been no need to invite me to do that with "NOT" and "REMOVE IT PROMPTLY"
I can see and understand, that it must have been hard to get always new and new and new suggestion from myself - might be giving you the feel to be my personal slave on your application that i want to use and to have this and that and such other features.
Meanwhile i did made some similar experiences in the German forum, working on the LazY Puppy RunScript-Builder etc.pp which has been suggested by a German user especially for his purposes. I did work for about three months on this and did sometimes feel like a real personal slave of this user. Because every time i reached somehow what he wanted, he made some new suggestions ---> making me think: oh my god, who might stop this guy.
So to me it looks like we'd made similar experiences on similar work and did somehow show some similar behavior. And that's alright with me.
But there's a big difference, i see:
2/17/12 Version 5.6 Includes both User installed and Builtin apps.
2/20/12 Version 5.8 Enables updates and name change to Builtin apps.
2/20/12 Version 5.9 Spruced up graphics. Thanks Geoffrey
2/23/12 Version 6.0 Opens wrapper that allows alternative /root directory
2/23/12 Version 6.1 bug fix
2/29/12 Version 6.2 bug fix
3/2/12 Version 6.3.1 bug fix
3/3/12 Version 6.4 Added feature to find the related woof package for a selected builtin. It lets you know if multiple packages are involved, otherwise automatically adds the correct name and pet.spec to the built package.
3/3/12 Version 6.5 Added ability to use woof package names & specs in batch mode (there's a checkbox in batch window).
As you can see, there is not even one notice of RSH because of made suggestions and/or finding bugs etc.pp. Yes, somewhere in a post you did write something like
RSH i can see where it could be useful. Thanks. and so, if this all is not worth to be named but sprucing up the graphics is worth to be named, then it is alright with me.
Please don't call me now something like a troll, because it would be an empty phrase which is mostly used by arrogant persons - i don't want to look at you as such a person.
But to show the difference fully and detailed, i want to let you know some facts on the LazY Puppy RunScripts. Suggested by der-schutzhund, a German user and would not be possible without the help from other forum members.

And if you would run the LazY Puppy 2.0.2 Final build 0.0.2 you would notice in the

That's the difference.
Even the LazY Puppy Logo shows where its been based on:
And:
YES! It is a comfortable patch because it is so to me. And also to all those users (about 100 have read the post since I've posted the comfort-patch) who used it.
I just want to say at the end of this, please be cool (as i try) and be aware of the possibility that your post above and mabe your following reply will be and is made still under the influence
of this. I have noticed it but nothing to do with it.
And as you can see: I am not only able to use bold and color - i can also use emoticons...
