DotPup Downloader "visit links" does not work.
This is not really an issue, but in 1.09 the button in the DotPup downloader that says "visit links in the description" does not work... well it pops up the box asking which link, but never opens a browser. Could this be because of the change to Firefox?
The downloader runs:
shell ( "mozilla " & choice & " &" )
But Puppy109 has no mozilla.
So you need a wrapper.
try this command:
which firefox
This will show you the full path to firefox, like /usr/local/bin/firefox
Now create a symlink using this path:
ln -s /usr/local/bin/firefox /usr/local/bin/mozilla
If firefox uses the same way of reading comandline-arguments, the downloader should work again.

Yes, thanks - I wasn't really after a solution for me as I am quite happy to copy and paste - I'm not exactly going to be using it a lot. I just thought I'd point it out as I think they were talking about a patch for or a patched version to 1.0.9 to sort out a few things, and somebody might want to correct this.
