Puppy user "muggins" has been creating and updating dotpets of espeak for some years now. You'll find it here:
http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?search_id=1666972155&t=25046
Your dotpet is significantly larger in size than muggin's one, so I'm wondering if you remembered to strip the binaries? |
If I had seen the pet was already out there I wouldn't have done another one
you're right I didn't strip the binaries. I just compiled in the easiest possible way, which is not the most economical in terms of memory usage.
anyway, trio's idea of a .pet/sfs maker is very interesting. in this way puppy is going to be easier to use day by day.

Given that the "standard" puppy only allows 3 sfs files to be loaded in, it would be nice to be able to convert an sfs file to a pet file
By doing that, one could easily uninstall the pet version, thus offering the flexability that the puppy derivatives with large number of sfs files offer.

I like full hard drive installs and need a devx_xxx.pet rather than .sfs. Can your program be used to convert the devx_sfs to a runnable .pet.
Thanks

Firefox,
No, it,s not for installing sfs to puppy full hd install, and I don't intend to do such with pet_maker. But, someone already did it (dejan555 ?), try google "installsfs puppy linux full"
Regards,
Trio

Trio,
I just tried out your handy tool and liked it much better than doing it by hand.
There are some problems with the new "dotpet to sfs" conversion part.
Some pet files are found invalid -
I tried this file "gimp-2.4.0-rc3.pet" and it returned "not valid pet file". If I renamed it "gimp.pet" it processed but did not make an sfs and instead created a directory tree.
Pet_Maker-08.pet converted very nicely to an sfs.
Thanks for this very helpful program....

Hey Bro
Very nice work!
Small thing, now that petmaker jumps straight to a made pet I didn't see how I can add a mini-icon for my menu entry... or am I being thick again?
Cheers
Mick

edit: menu entry for new pet you make? Ok, u make a new /usr/share/applications/xxx.desktop file, and put in the "pet to be" directory...and you got yourself a menu entry

Anybody who already tested all the functions of version 1.0 ,please report if all functions are working correctly. I was too tired when I post it, worry if something is sill wrong. It's hard to test by myself
Thank you
