Gpptp 2.0 VPN and the Quick-VPN tray app for Fatdog64. These includes the latest version of the underlying "pptp" program.

I've compiled the Quick-vpn_tray app for FD64. This will create a tray app for those that use the same VPN connection all the time. It runs at startup, and there is a readme in /root/MyApps/Quick-VPN

Download and remove the ".gz" extension for the install packages. I had to rename them to upload.

Gpptp creates an entry in "Networking", and puts a Gpptp.desktop in /usr/share/applications that can be dropped on the desktop. Edit the item to remove the ".desktop" extension.

Read the README in /etc/ppp/gpptp for instructions on usage.

devilspie2 0.40 is a window matching utility that performs Lua script-based actions on windows. Install from package manager. Depends: Lua (devx or repo) and libwnck (repo).
Lua 5.1.5 is a powerful, fast, lightweight, embeddable scripting language. This package can be installed alongside Lua 5.2.x, which comes in the devx. Install from package manager. Repackaged from Arch Linux. See note below.

note: Although I have used this Lua 5.1.5 package now and then, to run devilspie2 I exclusively use Lua 5.2.x from the devx.

abbreviations: devx = Fatdog64 fd64-devx SFS, repo = Fatdog64 official packages, contrib = Fatdog64 contributed packages and SFS

Rope, this thread is reserved for Fatdog64 packages. If you like I could make you a PET or TXZ for slacko5.7. It shouldn't be too hard to convert my package. PM me.

Here's an openbox menu extension for Fatdog64-710. It appends a sub-menu of ROX-Filer bookmarks to the standard right-click/Alt+F1 menu. It consists of three files, menu-extender.sh, bookmarks.awk and menu.xml, all of which must be placed inside directory ~/.config/openbox. Be careful not to overwrite an existing menu.xml in there. Then click on Reconfigure in the openbox right-click menu. The next right-click should display new menu entry "Bookmarks".

@jafadmin - I'm having difficulty with the .gz files you have provided above for Gpptp. Other .gz files from the thread will extract.

Edit: Nevermind, I learned how to read.
