Hi nbah07.

No project at the moment, after doing some exploration of / contributions to jrb's
UpupBB32-light. I discovered the excellent MLTerm terminal doing that: it's an "old kid
on the block", as terminals go, but it was a surprising discovery for me (in the positive
sense). Also got interested in ICU (International Components for Unicode).

For now enjoying what is turning out to be a nice breezy Canadian summer!
In short, recharging the batteries!

BFN.

Musher0,
Hello again.

I have moved on through UpupBB up to (+15).
This is a well written distro, by PeaBee.


I have written a "backup script" "pupsave-back-2-tar"
which works with a Frugal Install.
This will back-up the current "savefile" in .tar.gz format
and suffixes the current date-time-stamp.

Our work is a revision of "pupsave-backup 1.2.1" by 2byte,
fixing bugs and modifiying to match the way I do backups of 'savefile'.

Our script is titled "/usr/sbin/" "upupsave-back-2-tar"
and it runs successfuly in :
Tahr-606, UpupBB-03 ( +10, +12, +14, +15 ) .

EDIT:
We reinstalled Xenial 708, and first test was OK.

The script and two screen shots are attached.

I suggest you post this program in the Additional Software section of this forum.
Probably good place to put it is in the Utilities subsection.
http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/index. ... order=DESC

If it is offered as something to use.
It needs to be tested in a lot of Puppy versions by a lot of people.
Plus, new programs or scripts need to go in Additional Software section, unless they are made for just one specific version of Puppy.
The things they do not tell you, are usually the clue to solving the problem.
When I was a kid I wanted to be older.... This is not what I expected :shock:
YaPI(any iso installer)
