Thanks for the help

I want to go to a larger flash drive so I will do it all at one time.

I would appreciate if you would keep the rain water run off at Big D as it floods Lake Livingston.

Repo's in PPM Slacko-5.3.3

When setting the repos in PPM only 3 appear in the main gui window

Using classic view it shows the default as 5

Regardless which 5 are checked only 3 appear.

xchat

That link is of no help

I can get xchat-gnome from the repo's

I want just the plain xchat not the gnome addition

I searched Puppy and found a pet that works in Macpup

Is there an Xchat .pet for Macpup-529?

Macpup-529 the irc software does not include xchat.

Do you have a pet I can use to install.

I do not like any of the irc programs available.

Thanks for the assistance.
