I introduced this back when I built some pups with a separate DVD player ...what was that called now? Wary and Racy have it.
I think it was oggle -
- but cannot find anything on the archived blog and blog2
and also not at packages.debian.org ( searching for oggle )

Wary-5.5 has this

Code: Select all

#!/bin/sh
exec ogleshell
in defaultdvdplayer and ogleshell
calls /usr/bin/ogle
which is a wrapper script similar to mozilla-run.sh or run-mozilla.sh

that calls DVDP_ROOT=${exec_prefix}/lib/ogle

some ogle_* bins therein .
Ah, yes, Ogle.
The PETs are in the wary5 repo, you need both 'ogle' and 'ogle_gui' PETs:

http://distro.ibiblio.org/puppylinux/pe ... ges-wary5/

The source is in my sources repo:

http://bkhome.org/sources/alphabetical/o/

I used to like Ogle, but some people reported that it didn't work for them. As a dedicated DVD player, it is very nice.

Hello,
I started to add my latest proposals. This seems functional, but I must take the time to test some more.
A package will proposed shortly to shinobar.

I'll add a defaultscreenshot.
Currently, I have referenced four applications:
mtpaintsnapshot.sh
PupSnap
screeny
xpaint -snapshot

If you have ideas to complete list of screenshots utilities...

# v0.8.9 27Nov2013 shinobar: add defaultterminal, check excutable before, opning splash
fix was wrong permissions
Thanks I use Precise 5.7.1, but except if I'm blind I do not see the ability to change the default terminal
Both with version 0.8.9 and the default version 0.8.6, I see 21 entries.
Hello shinobar,

Some ideas for next release of defaults-chooser:
- Replace defaultpdf by defaultpdfviewer.
- Add defaultpdfcreator.
- Add /usr/bin/surfer (if present) for Browser and Html viewver.

Depending on your free time.
- Add defaultscreenshot
- Add defaultcalculator
- Add defaultftpclient
- Add defaulttorrent
- Add defaultaudioeditor
- Add defaultfilemanager

Yes, I also wish to see a default file manager and possibly torrent.
However, the "rest" I believe should be more on right click "open with", particularly multimedia editors as you may choose different program according to the codec (mp3, aac, m4a, ...) and what to want to achieve.
For instance, for "simple" image editing, you might want not to do it with the heavy Gimp.

I do not know how technically all these are implemented, but why not pull out the list of binaries so that the user can choose into it?

@RSH
LazY DAC (my LazY Puppy Defaults Changer) - still under development.
Appealing

Thanks

For several months, I use a modified version of defaults-chooser.
I tried to complete the selection of default applications.
The result seems interesting.

I must take the time to prepare a package for shinobar, so that he could test and give us his opinion.

Is it possible to add Default Midi Player (type Audio/Midi) in this fine little app please?
So that you can just enter a prog name/ path in the resulting file in usr/local/bin.

The rox/sourceforge/ mime/ send to seems to get broken easily, but the defaults chooser prog takes all the hassle out of delving in there!

Version 0.9 has three bugs, at least when run in EasyOS, presume at least two in a Puppy.

I reported on the bugs here:

http://bkhome.org/news/201909/final-bug ... lease.html

And here is the fixed PET:

http://distro.ibiblio.org/easyos/noarch ... -0.9.1.pet

If anyone wants to test this in a recent Puppy, and maybe put it into the 'noarch' repository for Puppy at ibiblio.org, go for it.

rerwin has posted a fix for defaults-chooser script, in the tarball posted here:

http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic. ... 73#1060573

PET is now version 0.9.2 (6.9KB):

http://distro.ibiblio.org/easyos/noarch ... -0.9.2.pet

This is for EasyOS and EasyPup, but presume will work in other pups.
