Some months ago, I sent Barry an example of a scalable ppm-gui. He did not respond, so it looks like you and me finds ppm more irritating than Barry

I have only touched the gtkdialog code (I hope). In addition it writes a unique gtk-theme to show the category icons (the code is below the gtkdialog code). As the image shows, these icons are the same as the menu-icons.



If anyone else want to try it you must replace the attached file with /usr/local/petget/pkg_chooser.sh. Remember to change the attribute to executable.

I grabbed the pkg_chooser.sh script from Luci 517, since I could not find the woof repo ?

Works for me

Thanks Sigmund

(by the way, there is no "woof" repo per sé ... as in the building blocks of woof, you'd need to actually download woof.. but what you did I think is close enough . The screeny is of the current spup, it's from woof December 22, I'll update next week)

Maybe this feels more logical ?

Thanks for this Zigbert!
Installed and works fine.
I'll keep a copy on HD, to add to any new puppy I install.
(yes, I like your second version better)

We will get two versions of ppm in woof builds - ziggy (this one) and classic according to Barry

Excellent.
Recently using Spup with the new PPM, I was struck with how much better it was.

I wonder if Ziggy can integrate or become closer to quickpet, or maybe even call it if available? Perhaps with an aps button?

Did you know PET stands for Puppy Extra Treats?

Linux gone Ziggy

I tried this in Quirky 120 NOP, the first version doesn't work at all, the second one works, but when different category's are selected it don't refresh the package list until any of the package types are either deselected or selected again, everything else works fine

I do not see a window in the example screen that shows the installed Pet packages.
I often refer to it to see what I have installed and also to remove packages that I installed without using the PPM.
So does it include a window showing installed packages?

Never Mind! I really should have used it before bringing up my question.
After using it, I found out how and now I feel like a real nobe.

While experimenting with different keyboard layouts
( starting with assigning keys to /etc/inputrc for the different terminals ( rxvt, urxvt, sakura ))
I stumbled over the xkbconfigmanager dy Dougal which is working very well so far,
but it has no feature to create additional
Identifier "Keyboard[0-9]"
than
Identifier "Keyboard0"
( /etc/X11/xorg.conf )
or handle more than this one Keyboard0 .

I managed to add tabs see shot but i don't know how to add variables when pressing a <notebook labels=\"$LABELS\">

like
if pressed notebook label X ; then KB=X; fi
or
[ "$LABELY" ] && KB=Y

This link was posted in additional software, for slim (desktop login tool) ... it uses gtkdialog (note: script is missing puppy's "3" suffix)
