PupTray is a way to quickly launch your favorite programs. It is written in BaCon which you can find here: http://www.basic-converter.org/ PupTray uses a config file that you set up to quickly run your favorite programs. Source is included and a readme file to get up and running fast. This was written in Puppy Lucid 5.01 but should work for most versions of Puppy Linux. No dependencies except GTK+. Thanks to vovchik for helping me get this up and running! Have fun!

Dear Puppians, mechanic has done a really nice job here, and the program is genuinely useful and a breeze to configure. Please try it out. With kind regards, vovchik |

What makes it more useful than JWM tray buttons? You can't drag and drop programs into it, can you? Does it automatically find icons or something? _________________ DEATH TO SPREADSHEETS - - - Classic Puppy quotes - - - Beware the demented serfers! |

Dear ttuuxxx and disciple, I think this binary will work in older puppies. I compiled it in 3.01... With kind regards, vovchik PS.
I use Icewm

Thanks vovchik, this is my first program for puppy and I thank you for helping with it.
Sorry, it doesn't do all of this stuff. It's just a simple application launcher like I used before I moved to linux. I found it very useful so I wanted the same on puppy linux. I thought others might find it useful.
Sorry about that. I included the sources so anyone could try to recompile it on their own machine. I never expected it would work for everybody using the earlier puppy versions. The sources should be in: /usr/local/PupTray/src/ _________________ regards, mechanic |

 I really like it! The only glitch is I'm running 5.1 with icewm and I had to modify the startup script to get it to show in the tray.
The only way to improve it would be to have icons associated with the menu entries. Possible? _________________ /root for the home team |

Here's one I compiled for 2.14X plus I updated the sources to work better with puppy the default was gedit for the text editor and firefox for the browser Puppy uses defaultbrowser & defaulttexteditor now works out of the box , Had to compile Bash 4.1 to get it working and then installed the bash beacon script and opened mrrxvt and typed bash bacon -j puptray.bac
Below is the pet, plus bash with the bacon script included (only needed for compiling not running Ptray )and a locales pet for bash Thanks ttuuxxx

For a starter example on 2.14X you could use Calculator=gcalctool Word Processor=abiword Text Editor=defaulttexteditor Media Player=defaultmediaplayer Audio Player=defaultaudioplayer +++ just copy it over the default text and save it\ ttuuxxx

Sorry, I forgot to update the binary. If you've downloaded this, please download again. Should be OK now. _________________ regards, mechanic |

There was an error, line 291 gdk = gdk_pixbuf_new_from_file(icon$, NUL) should be gdk = gdk_pixbuf_new_from_file(icon$, NULL) <--- two "L's" Plus its still using gedit and Firefox when it should be defaulttexteditor and defaultbrowser. Fixed below ttuuxxx

Actually no, 'NUL' is correct. BaCon doesn't come with NULL defined, AFAIK (or NUL, for that matter). 'NUL' is defined in the source to be '0'
Thanks, I'll change that one. A big thanks for compiling this for earlier versions of puppy too! _________________ regards, mechanic |

Yes I knew that butttttt when I went to compile it in its original state. It wouldn't compile, it would get an error, Once I added the second "L", It compiled just fine without error and finally worked perfectly. Below is the default error and once the "L" is added I get no errors. Ps your welcome for the earlier compile
