xargs -P N Run up to N PROGs in parallel Parallel runs of up to `max-procs` processes at a time; the default is 1.

Yeah the updates look great! Gonna install this in my Dpup Stretch now..

Those last two commands prob won't be needed ... But do install any multiarch PETs needed ... BTW, there have been some regressions that slipped into Pkg recently - related to not installing files properly.. They're fixed now .. So please pull down the latest Pkg from https://gitlab.com/sc0ttj/Pkg, ...

https://github.com/puppylinux-woof-CE/woof-CE/blob/legacy/woof-code/0setup Maybe 207-282..... No at the moment Pkg does not contain that code.. Though it looks like it could be moved into a /usr/sbin/arch2pup script, so it would be inline/consistent with how Pkg handles other repo types.. I've made...

Did u get it working?

If not, can you send the exact command you used to add the repo please?

(prob `pkg add-repo <some-url>`)

@ sc0ttman:- Scotty, am I right in thinking some of the newer Pups already have this by default? I did a recent install of the 'stable' version 8.0 of Bionicpup64, ok? I forget what it was, but something I installed from a .deb package apparently triggered a terminal to open in the background.....a...

Hello sc0ttman! Yo. I have almost completed a script that will install Hiawatha, mariadb, PHP7 and ZoneMinder, using Pkg for most of the heavy lifting. With a few more adjustments it should set up a zoneminder system from a stock Bionic64. Nice :) I have though a small question. The Ubuntu PPA for ...

The Puppy devs are already in the process of replacing PPM with Pkg Pkg is a command-line package manager, with way more features than PPM, and it also has a Gtkdialog GUI. Work is already being done on github to switch over to using Pkg at some future time (not soon). Pkg is already available to in...

Ooooh... this looks great.. I'd love to combine a few tools, to create a simpler, single binary file "webpack" alternative, that takes nice CLI options, instead of a config file... Ideally something that can do these things: - JSON file parser - CSV parser - read .hbs file, use mustache or...

With Pkg ( https://gitlab.com/sc0ttj/Pkg ) installed, in proper Puppy Linux (not a DebianDog etc), you can do this: pkg list-installed # list upgradeable packages pkg update-sources # update list of installed repos pkg repo-update # get latest repo files from online pkg update # update installed pac...

My code growing huge.. oh.. I can not write just in one script. the terminal says: ./191209_0859: line 374: /usr/bin/tail: Argument list too long ./191209_0859: line 375: /usr/sbin/gtkdialog: Argument list too long [/quote] I haven't looked at your code, but it's likely you are trying to hold too m...

I did a GUI for Puppy years ago for macchanger: http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=64216

The FirstRun program already lets you choose a hostname, maybe it could detect if macchanger is installed, and offer the chance to change mac address if so..

Yeah both of those require nodejs - Min is a browser built with Election, I use it .. It's ok, but electron stuff is a little crap in terms of performance.. I haven't built anything with nwjs, but keep meaning to, to test it out. Note there is also this: LCUI ( http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic...

Have you had any luck compiling any of those? I have failed to compile basically every single "minimal webkit window" thing that I tried (on Dpup Stretch RC2) .. I got one to work, a Python based one, but it is a bit too buggy for use... All I really want is a "chromeless" (borde...

This is probably not want you want, but mlterm (a terminal emulator) can be compiled to support framebuffer ... you get the binary mlterm-fb .. You can split windows vertically or horizontally with mlterm, and it also has great support for libsixel, images, etc. So, you could use it with ranger, vif...
