Urxvtset

[stu90]

Updated to urxvtset-0.5

new for 0.5
Transparency shading
Borderless window

issues:
very large windows size for some people.

requires:
Yad needs to be installed for urxvtset to work.
latest Yad 0.12.2.pet is available on this link.
http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic. ... 533#536533

Im not sure how you can move a borderless window? So this option is probably best used with a custom script, menu item or desktop file.
Screen position could be added to the geometry but it would take up another two spaces on the GUI so i'm not sure about that
urxvt -geometry "42x12+0+0"
some thing like above would open terminal in upper left corner of the screen.

This is a little Yad setup GUI for puppy rxvt terminal.

Only tested on Lucid Puppy but will probably work on other puppies to if Yad works on them.

What you can do with it:

change -
Text colour.
Background colour.
Cursor underline colour.
window geometry.
Font.
Font style.
Font size.

Things to know - make sure to fill in all input fields, font names and font style are case sensitive - for a list of usable font type the command fc-list in a terminal

Before installing - move/backup your /root/.Xdefaults file if you uninstall rxvtset move/restore this file back to /root to get the default rxvt settings back.

Dependencies - requires Yad for the GUI

The settings are being changed in .Xdefaults
Does not seem to be having any effect on the console.
When you open the console the title is urxvt.
Is this a different rxvt terminal?

Hello bigpup,

urxvt and rxvt are the same thing in puppy rxvt being a link to urxvt - however there is a mismatch in the rxvt-unicode package where the default desktop icon will open urxvt while the default urxvt menu item will open rxvt - i guess it is because they have different names the xdefaults for one does not seem to work with the other so a case of six of one and half a dozen of the other.


Here is a .pet for urxvtset

Hi stu90,

stu90,

urxvtsetup.pet did it.
Thanks for the quick fix!

Any info on what background number sets do what?
Like #424242 is what color? etc...

Good idea to keep your first post updated with new versions. Most people will not look to far into a topic for newer versions of the pet.

No big deal, but when installing pet, it says entry will be made in menu, under setup. Entry shows up in utility.

red=green=blue is alway grey

Thanks!
Did not think about going to gcolor2 color chooser to see what code is for what color.
For background entry:
Found I could just put a color name like white, blue, green, orange, etc..
But not much control that way.
Getting the code set, for a specific color variation, gives more control.

[vovchik]

Dear L18L,

Following in your footsteps (yad --font), why not simply use

Code: Select all

yad --color

for color selection?

I am getting to like yad....

With kind regards,

Hi Bigpup that is a colour code - i used the colour from my openbox window decoration - as you have found out you can just enter some colours by name.

Thanks for the heads up - .pet should give the correct category information when installing now.

[stu90]

Hi stu90,

thanks for urxvtsetup.pet

# yad --font

Here is version 2

Hi L18L,
Thank you for the update - this makes selecting text much easier now, i have included in new 0.3 .pet

cheers.

[L18L]

Hi stu90,

Unless some one still wants rxvtset i will change this thread focus to Urxvtset

and please note it not just for Lucid, I am with wary, sometimes as user fido.

why not simply use yad --color

I am getting to like yad too and one idea has lead to another so I can present version 03a now.
- forces numeric values for geometry and font size
- color chooser and font chooser for preview
- main window opens at cursor position

Transparence, why just on/off ? Colour chooser enables values from 0 to 255.

Restore, reload default values, stored with OK

Thanks to all for feedback
cheers

... urxvt and rxvt are the same thing in puppy rxvt being a link to urxvt - however there is a mismatch in the rxvt-unicode package where the default desktop icon will open urxvt while the default urxvt menu item will open rxvt ...

Hmm, would that explain the problems with getting all the applications that use rxvt to show the same text and background when they call rxvt?

For example see this thread.

[L18L]

present version 03a now.

Forget 0.3a completly please.
It is faulty and too complicated, just an example howto NOT use yad.

Correct and simple version coming soon

[L18L]

Correct and simple version coming soon

Here it is, v 0.3b

If there was a way to reject values of zero then the text "Make sure..." could be omitted.
Load default or change values and press OK

When the texts will be finished I would like to internationalize this tool.

cheers

Hi Flash,
Im not sure - it seems a few of the puppy scripts/apps have colours for rxvt set in the script which will over ride .xdefaults - i guess you would need to edit out any -fg -bg colours and change the terminal rxvt/urxvt to match which ever you have .xdefaults set up for.

Hi L18L,
Nice find on the colour chooser - i have looked at the yad --help-all numerous times yet completely missed that.

To be honest im not to sure about the drag and drop separate font preview option - some of my fonts do not display at all / and others incorrectly - i also have no desktop icons other than drives to drag there.

[bigpup]

stu90,

urxvtset-0.4.pet
When installed does not put an entry for it in the menu.

Does not seem to install.

I tried L18L's 0.3b version.
When choosing color for foreground or cursor.
After saving settings. They both will have the same color. Based on the one you changed last.

But overall, a very nice program!

Oops sorry about that bigpup

Do you still have the colour problem in 0.4 ?

cheers.
