Maybe gettext is not installed properly? The gettext.sh script should be in $PATH and eval_gettext is a function in that script. Just check your gettext package and maybe renew it from the lucid repos (Lazy is based on Lupu, yeah?)

If you have at least gtkdialog-0.8 it will work if the executable "gtkdialog" is in $PATH. This can be a symlink, often it's labelled "gtkdialog4". I could put in some gymnastics that find the correct exec but it has been around long enough now that distro maintainers should be aware. I believe wary/racy/precise/dpup all have similar symlinks and so it works fine there.

Thanks for you quick reply.

Yes, LazY is based on Lucid 528-4.

Lucid 528-4 dosn't have the gettext.sh also ---> only a binary "gettext" in /usr/bin ---> as is in LazY.

Downloading and installing gettext_0.17 from the lucid repo gives no success.

Changing
Code:
eval $(gtkdialog -p SCREENY -c)

to
Code:
eval $(gtkdialog4 -p SCREENY -c)

in line 183 inside the screeny script doesn't give any success (in lucid 528-4 gtkdialog is a symlink to gtkdialog3, gtkdialog4 is already installed in LazY)

Maybe the gtkdialog error is just a result of the missing gettext.sh script?

Any OS from where i can grab this script?

Hi 01micko.

Thanks for the script. Unfortunately no success. Only the error messages have changed. Crying or Very sad



BTW: 0.6 seems to work.

Yes, that works. Very Happy

Thanks a lot for the help.



Seems like i had to download and install gettext_base_0.17 instead of gettext_0.17 from the lucid repo. Laughing

See here and try it.. should work ok, put that code in the bottom of /root/.jwm/jwmrc-personal (replace if it has an entry for mtpaint) and restart jwm. It is default in the new slacko (when released).

Hi Mick !
screeny works OOTB in dpup-Exprimo as xwd is already present in it.;
have just installed screeny-0.7-noarch.pet + screeny-0.7-NLS.pet;
have used RSH forum member's Edit-mo-rtc-0.1.pet for po to mo translation (see Localization project screeny 's thread) ==> many thanks to RSH Smile
Cheers, Charlie

I installed screeny and xwd in the Wary 5.1.1-based Solidpup511B_Lite-beta3.1

From the terminal I get an error message similar to what RSH reported:
Code:

/usr/sbin/screeny: line 9: gettext.sh: No such file or directory
/usr/sbin/screeny: line 182: eval_gettext: command not found

** ERROR **: gtkdialog: Error in line 16, near token '</label>': syntax error


Solidpup already comes with gtkdialog 0.8.2.
I had to install a newer gettext for it to work. Attached is my compiled gettext for wary.

Thanks, micko..

There's no doubt you are a better coder than me mick, but I noticed that the yaf-splash wasn't saying anything when I captured the fullscreen with a 10 second delay. I examined your script and in line 204 it says:
(edited)
Code:
"$(gettext"Waiting ...")"

I guess gettext couldn't process that properly, so I changed it to:
Code:

"$(gettext "Waiting") ..."

Now the yaf-splash will display the text during the wait time.

screeny running from console wrote:
/usr/sbin/screeny: line 203: gettextWaiting ...: command not found


Thus inserting 1 space between gettext and "Waiting
"$(gettext "Waiting ...")"
makes it splash Cool

PostPosted: Wed 24 Oct 2012, 22:49    Post subject: Screeny not running if Netpbm installed  
Hi,
running screeny on dpup-exprimo 5X3.6.2
it runs OK
till i installed
netpbm_10.0-12.2+b1_i386.deb and
libnetpbm10_10.0-12.2+b1_i386.deb
i got the following console report:
Quote:
# screeny
xwdtopnm: symbol lookup error: xwdtopnm: undefined symbol: pm_optParseOptions
pnmtopng: Error reading magic number from Netpbm image stream. Most often, this means your input file is empty.
EXIT="Exit on timeout"
#

then a blank .png file is returned;
Unsinstalling netpbm fixes that.
so might it be that some netpbms binaries were not compatible?
Cheers, Charlie

Hi,
I hope, it's not too late for feedback Embarassed .

I often used v0.8 during the last days in Slacko 5.4 and I really like it Very Happy .

The only annoying part for me was capture$$ which adds a (randomly?) process id. Changed it to capture${tmp-`date`} in the script at line #178, which adds the date and time. This gives me a better order.

Thumbs up Very Happy ,

Rolf
