I see File Systems partitions updating with mount status. That could be useful reinforcement. I do not what motivated the new utility, imagine legacy Conky doing the same with the right code. If you want to share what it takes, by all means. maybe a how to? If using that PET worked for you, that me...

That's great if you've already loaded devx! For the GoLand, I see that they also have got a similar .tar.gz archive here: https://www.jetbrains.com/go/download/#section=linux. You can install it in the similar way as dimkr has already told you for go. I've tested it on F-96_4. GoLand's GUI seems to ...

Specifically I am using I am using FossaPup64. Thank you that command works perfectly and I learn a bit about how to do that for neovim too. Now I can execute go version and nvim etc. VanillaDpup also interesting to try it may be better choice for me One thing to note, have you loaded your devx.sfs...

As far as I could understand your question, maybe you are trying to display mounted partitions in Conny window. This may help you then: https://forum.puppylinux.com/viewtopic.php?t=10679. Note that it can possibly overwrite your existing conkyrc. BTW, I can point out the required code to you, if you...

Updated to version shell_1.1 (shell meaning this is the shell version of ehdd, not the deprecated C version).

Added bash auto-completion.

PET package uploaded in original post.

user1234

This is interesting, but why bother with C client when a shell-script client is available and works just as well? https://github.com/raylee/tldr-sh-client Thanks for pointing that out! Since the shell one is not an official client, it never got into my attention. But currently, I am too bored of do...

user1234

Are you running this directly on your hardware, or is it QEMU that you use? FYI, I was asking this because, with QEMU, the commands I used to run Jammy64 were unusable with Fossa64. But, I don't think that might be the issue since earlier without the changes, as you say, the build was working fine f...

This is the pet compiled on Jammy64 for the official C client of the program tldr . Source code is available on its GitHub repo https://github.com/tldr-pages/tldr-c-client. Here is the pet package for Jammy64: tldr_c_client.pet I will very soon upload one each for Fossa64/F96, Bionic64, and some oth...

I've updated this again. Bug fix in update 4 (weather not showing on reboot since we were trying to load weather info from internet before our network devices got in UP state).

user1234

trawglodyte , it does not matter much whichever introduction tutorial you take, real knowledge in programming mostly comes from experience only. Books can guide you and teach you, but unless you solve a few problems yourself related to what you've learnt, till then you can't actually say that you k...

user1234

You can also add the command in /etc/rc.d/rc.local. This should give you the same results.

Also, /etc/fstab is also there; but I have not used it for anything else except normal partitions.

user1234

One more reason to use git is that it is an easy backup system. I'll share with you two of my experiences (one happened just few minutes ago). Both are about mistakenly deleting folders with all of my work: rm -rf woof-CE-tests : This folder contained all the woof-CE builds' ISOs I downloaded and 4 ...

user1234

In bash, we would just check if the process with that name is already running (using something like pidof). Not sure how you'll implement that in C?

The easiest will be to just call the command and read its output in your C code.

user1234

Should this update be forwarded to WoofCE team (aka GIT)? No response expected to this question. Its the intent that I focus toward. I see this, BTOP, and TLDR as updated quality modern tools users and admins, alike, find value is viewing system performance at a glance . Just thoughts... Yes, I'll ...

@user1234 I fixed the transparency with: conky.config = { use_xft = true, -- use xft? font = 'DejaVuSans:size=9', -- [font name]:size=[font size] xftalpha = 1, uppercase = false, -- all text in uppercase? pad_percents = 0, text_buffer_size = 2048, override_utf8_locale = true, -- Force UTF8? note th...

This is an update of conky-gtk from F96-CE_4 to support the update of Fossa64's conkyrc I described here : https://forum.puppylinux.com/viewtopic.php?t=10668. --- I believe since conky-gtk can currently support only the default conkyrc (or otherwise one that is carefully made to support it), I have ...

@user1234 I have the conkyrc and show_mounts.lua set up in a F96-CE_4-RT and so far working Screenshot(1).gif rockedge , thanks for testing! :thumbup: --- ... but background transparency is not working. ... Yes, I am, by far, not able to get the transparency working. --- I changed the bar colors an...

I know this question is quite old; but for anyone searching for this same question, if you want to preserve both files, you can include either of the following in either of the script (you'll probably want this when each file has 100s of lines of code, and does it own separate job): . [path to your ...

Please everyone viewing this and has access to new lua, please test this and report me if it doesn't work for you. Once completed, I want to incorporate this in woof-CE. --- EDIT: Unless any new improvements should be made here, or if anyhow we can overcome those limitations, this should just work f...

New Update I decided to allow filesystems to be updated every 5 seconds; and using all network devices, which based on whether they are UP or not will be displayed. --- Here is the updated conkyrc: -- This is an update of older conkyrc found in Fossa64 to Conky's new Lua syntax. -- Configs are save...

plinej , I also was not able to get this working in Jammy64 running in QEMU environment. I can access my samba service if I manually connect to my service with these commands: sambashare //192.168.205.204/sambashare -U=lakshay mount -t cifs //192.168.205.204/sambashare ./sambashare -o user=lakshay ...

user1234

Running the program, I get: cat: /root/.ynetshares: No such file or directory You should add a check at the beginning whether the file is present or not, or even better, simply do: touch /root/.ynetshares EDIT: I see why you may not want to simply touch the file. So, adding a check is a choice; the ...

user1234

I am currently working on adding conky in Jammy64. Since this version of conky uses Lua rather than the previous conkyrc's syntax, I have updated the conkyrc to the newer syntax. Also, since Lua is a real programming language rather than simple conky stuff, we can do much more with it than we can wi...

IF we are sticking with Ubuntu then we should be getting JammyPup64 uploaded in preparation for NoblePup64........ there is already a JammyPup64 build: https://github.com/puppylinux-woof-CE/woof-CE/actions/workflows/ubuntu-jammy64.yml I personally think it would be better to get BookwormPup64 uploa...

user1234

2 observations: The existence of these Pull Request's suggests that we still have some folk who are willing to propose code changes to "improve" Puppy. Not much, the open PRs are from years ago. That does not show that new folks are joining (though we got the first PR from a new person th...

user1234

Yes you do. Take it from me....it is practically impossible to do version control when working manually. I live this scenario everyday: I build/create a raw distro and begin to polish it. After some quick tests to see if it boots and stays running I'll share it. Meanwhile still polishing the distro...

what changes can sit there in the list of open PRs, ignored for years. I agree, PRs should not be ignored - either "accept", or "reject", or in the third case guide the author of the PR if any modification is required. I think it is high time to add contribution guidelines in wo...

The documentation update (if anybody can find the time to review) can be found (mainly) at: https://github.com/puppylinux-woof-CE/woof-CE/tree/testing/woof-code/rootfs-skeleton/usr/share/doc Except that, I have also added SNS (Simple Network Setup) and connman-gtk docs. The SNS docs reside here , w...

peebee , I'll also want to talk about the PRs I opened: Update geany to version 2.0 : I am not sure if this is needed, but have left it to you to take any action (if you think it is required please merge; otherwise kindly inform me and I'll close the PR :thumbup: ). The Documentation Update (again)...
