In response to BarryK's request in the "Bugs & Fixes" thread, here's an updated line for the remax-4.2 listing in packages.txt:

"remax-4.2" "remax 4.2: custom live-CD creator" on "+tcl,+tk,+gnocl 26K" \

Here is ttuuxxx's revised Abiword-2.6.3 with the addition of plugins and extras from the faulty Abiword-2.6.6 ... the best of both worlds.

The patched version also supports the more recent .docx format of Microsoft Word 2007! Thanks, ttuuxxx.

here's the update For Rox-filer mime file to recognize .docx as a abiword file so it opens up automatically when you click on it, I figured it out Smile

it wasn't the regular mime location in root, it was located in usr/share/mime. Learn something new everyday I guess:) Anyways it works, feel free to test it out Smile

The only thing to keep in mind, anytime we compile rox and build a new package that would have to be added, it doesn't come with rox.
Anyone taking notes? lol

Note this is just a file, not rox itself Smile

Here's something else you might like, Its the latest JWM release plus a new blinky, I finally found the sources for the gtk2 blinky for JWM, not the icewm version of blinky but the sources used in 4 series so it should be really stable, well as stable as any blinky for JWM ever was, there was no error and I used the gnome blinky images and recoloured the blinking screen so its more noticable. I didn't include any blinky jwm/config files just the static bin and thats its. So you get both JWM and blinky Smile

pcp.gz killed my Control Panel. It is now just a dead link bout in /usr/sbin, as well as off the menu.

Any suggestions?

I found the original from http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?search_id=877545425&t=36852&start=75
and tried it and it extracted ok with xarchive, strange, maybe a bad download.

Hey WhoDo You know how a few of them wanted the extra formats for Homebank and I compiled the package and posted it on 4.2 Bugs&Fixes
well here's the link to it, I was thinking it should be a repo item since its 1MB larger compressed, due to the extras needed for the plugins.
