@Jasper
Hi Jasper
Thunderbird portable by mikewalsh works smoothly on my usb stick, gmail included. The downside of TB is that it's heavy and slow, that's why I'm looking for alternatives.
I'm aware of your attempt at compiling Claws (https://www.forum.puppylinux.com/viewto ... aws#p73921) but sadly it won't work for me. Libetpan library is not recognized, as you wrote.
However, comparing Claws Mail included in FP64 with a coetaneous version of Sylpheed (available as sfs), I noticed that the first one, despite some aesthetic embellishments, is somehow slower than Sylpheed. Also, CM fails in correctly recreating imap folders and, even more important, has some odd behaviours. For example, whene you delete a mail, you expect to find it into the 'trash' or 'deleted' folder. Everything is deleted forever instead.
Therefore, in light of the above, I believe Sylpheed is a better choice. A beta version is available as source package, alternatively a 'delta patch' for 3.7 to 3.8 (with Oauth2) is present too.
The only weak point of Sylpheed is that it stores mail passwords as plan text, but you can live with it.
I think many FP users may be interested in having Sylpheed working as portable from a usb key.
Cheers

@newpet

I have been lazy by firstly installing the Sylpheed offering using the PPM.

The build was 3.7 and included all the necessary dependencies.

*Note, that I have OpenSSL 1.1.1s on my worktop .... you might want to grab in earlier in this thread.

I do not know how to make an AppImage but I am sure someone else can help out to make it "portable" for you.

For example, whene you delete a mail, you expect to find it into the 'trash' or 'deleted' folder. Everything is deleted forever instead.

I found this out to my dismay and have also stopped using this for this particular reason.

I did look at the AppImageKit which is allows you to create applications into the AppImage format for distribution

https://github.com/AppImage/AppImageKit

I did make a stab at compiling it and it failed ..... tried editing the build.sh script and I guess I will have to investigate this when time permits.

The stress-ng tool measures the system’s capability to maintain a good level of efficiency under unfavourable conditions.

The stress-ng tool is a stress workload generator to load and stress all kernel interfaces.

It includes a wide range of stress mechanisms known as stressors.

Stress testing makes a machine work hard and trip hardware issues such as thermal overruns and operating system bugs that occur when a system is being overworked.

There are over 270 different tests. These include CPU specific tests that exercise floating point, integer, bit manipulation, control flow, and virtual memory tests.

Stress-ng_0.15.06-2 (Approx 2.8mb)
https://www.mediafire.com/file/u2rhrecg ... 2.pet/file

Use the stress-ng tool with caution as some of the tests can impact the system’s thermal zone trip points on a poorly designed hardware. This can impact system performance and cause excessive system thrashing which can be difficult to stop.

It did not run under Fossapup64, nor provide any menu items. I also tried it under F96-CE_3 but failed as there was a dependency missing. Cant recall which, sorry! Hope others have more success.

Thanks @Geek3579 for the feedback.

I will try it again and change some of the options to see if it will work successfully

@Jasper
Yes, I already installed openSSL 1.1.1s. It seems to be the last release of the 1.1.1 serie. What will follow next?
Regarding the mail client, I'll stay with TB for now, it's the only working one as portable, though a little bulky.
However, I don't lose hope to see a portable Sylpheed working from my usb stick.
Thanks.

Yes, Unshield. I compiled version 1.5.1.
What is it for? The cases are different, I'll tell you about my own

So, I decided to try fheroes2. A good engine for the Second Heroes, a lot has been added and improved for nostalgia. But this needs resources from the game. I have English and Russian versions of the game in the mdf-mds image format. I pulled the game files from the images using poweriso.
But the resources needed by the engine are inside the cab archives. I tried to pull them out using cabextract. But the wise cabextract cursed me and said that InstallShield is used there, not Microsoft Cabinet File, and that I need to use Unshield

After that, I compiled Unshield. Did so:

Code: Select all

unshield x data1.cab

And now I have the game resources I need for fheroes2.
Well, bundled with fheroes2 is a script that pulls resources from the proprietary version of the game using innoextract. But my version is "not quite" branded And besides, it's not sporty
In addition, you can install the game using Wine and take resources from there. But again ...

The English and Russian versions work fine, I checked.
In general, here is Unshield:

Some applications, such as MikeWalsh's Masterpdfeditor4, https://www.forum.puppylinux.com/viewtopic.php?t=1060 require Qt4 libraries that may be hard to track down. At least for that application, the attached will suffice, https://www.mediafire.com/file/t2gur0nu ... 7.pet/file

The portable builds of MasterPDFEditor have the required Qt4 libs built-in, Mike. Shouldn't be any need for a Qt4 package.

Trying to find standalone Qt4 packages for 64-bit Puppies is something of an uphill task, Mike. Very few ever got put together, unlike the massive archive-full that got built for 32-bitzers...

T'other Mike.

mikeslr · Post by **mikeslr** » Mon Apr 24, 2023 5:25 pm

@mikewalsh: Good to know. Good thing one of us is fully awake. I got so used to having to install the libs before you published the portable that it hadn't occurred to me to check.

Puppy fans:
Over the course of my use of Fossapup64 for a couple of years I managed to track down and store a bunch of Qt4 libs some applications needed. If you let me know what LIstDD thinks is missing, I may be able to shorten your search for them.

There are additional dictionaries available ........ alas no Russian.

It would be useful to have an interactive dictionary available.

I don't know if anyone else will need it. But I have already compiled and done pet, so...
So, for GFX there is a Holy Trinity in the person of Blender, Gimp and Inkscape And there is Another Trinity for reading and maintaining the library, well, it's Cool Reader, GoldenDict and freeLib.

So, freeLib.
3 languages are supported (English, Russian and Ukrainian). Not only in menu, but also in "virtual alphabet" to search for books by various criteria.
Therefore, you will be able to search and read Shakespeare, Pushkin and Shevchenko, respectively.

So, what can the program do:
Importing a library from inpx files. I do not know which English-language online libraries exist in the form of an "offline archive of the entire library + inpx file". But I have two Russian-speaking ones on my hard drive, each about 300 gigabytes (fb2 format). Finding books in your language is your task
Working with user libraries (based on fb2/EPUB/fbd).
Working with multiple libraries.
The ability to assign a separate program for each book format (Cool Reader, FBReader, etc).
Saving books to the selected folder (very useful if the library is 300 GB ).
Search and filter books (who would have thought ) - authors, series, genres.
Setting up the formatting of books (fonts, letters, titles, hyphenations, etc).
Hide and sit quietly in the system tray
OPDS/HTTP server.
Built-in conversion to MOBI/AZW3/EPUB.
Pet:
freeLib-6.0.50-fossapup-x86_64.pet
If someone needs kindlegen, then I compiled it too, but removed it because of the size (28 M and I don't need it - I have Kobo ebooks with installed Cool Reader on them ). If necessary, I can post it.
(KindleGen a program offered by Amazon, which allows authors to create eBooks to be used in a Kindle device, and publish them on the eBook store).

I decided to reread Alien, Total Recall and Blade Runner. Yes, the films are also good, but don't judge me harshly :
