This is just the best writing app I have ever seen. As doing some kind of writings myself I share seaside's thoughts about the editors. When you write you just write and anything else is unnecessary. Usually there is so much on the screen to ruin your concentration. And it is so easy to start playin...

Among the other fine features in Lucid 528 I have to say that the nickname of this Puppy is excellent!

Desktop computers fan spinning like crazy all the time

I've been trying to get my desktop computers fans to spin slower. But I have not find a way to do it. I think they spin unnecessarily fast. As with sensors I get this: # sensors atk0110-acpi-0 Adapter: ACPI interface Vcore Voltage: +1.10 V (min = +0.85 V, max = +1.60 V) +3.3 Voltage: +3.30 V (min = ...

I had sometimes problems getting the sfs files loaded correct. I resolved my problems by renamig the sfs files so that I removed the Puppy version number part fro...

Thanks,

I was in a course for amateur theatre players and get just home. I'll examine this one more closely tomorrow morning. It seems that you have commented it so clearly that I should understand how it works.

I have downloaded the bash reference, thanks for that too.

Can I cat files in random order?

If I have a script like this

Code: Select all

for file in *
do
cat "$file"  >  /tmp/xxx/xxx.tex
is there a way to get the files in random order? Or should I use find and how is it done with it?

Googling googling but can't find a solution.

Placing application windows on the screen in a script?

Hi,

is it possible to place application windows on the screen as opening them from a script?

If I for example want to open leafpad and xdvi windows side by side is there any way to do it? So that I don't need to drag them after they are opened.

This works for me in Puppy 4.12. Mpd.conf file is in /etc. Here's a little front end for it too if someone wants to try. And three plugins to it.
