I will try to make a pet if it works. It needs an upgraded glib and libsoup so I need to make sure those upgrades don't break anything.

Arora browser built on the latest QT runs stable, flash works on it also and has a some plugins.http://code.google.com/p/arora/ You might want to try that. I did compile it on puppy 5.2, I also tried it on earlier qt version, and it was unstable, so use the latest qt if your going to try it.

Is there any way to insert the currently-running version number of Fluppy into the icon somewhere?

I am using Fluppy013 on a bootable USB drive. Pidgin logs are taking up more and more space. I moved /root/.purple/logs to /mnt/home/.purple/logs and created a relative link to /root/.purple/logs

When I reboot, the system reports that it can not find/access the log files in /mnt/home/.purple

Any hints? I would rather not turn off the logs, but at some point I will have to do it to keep the save file from getting full.

Thanks
Thom

My son just asked if there is an app to open "7zip" files, whatever those are?

He mumbled something about Microsoft ... yuck ...

Edoc,

I'm not sure about Fluppy's default archiver, but Peazip should handle any format your son throws it's way.

@ edoc

7zip is I think a open source clone of winzip it also does lots of other compressed archives including its own 7zip format. I use it for rar files.
Run it with wine when required

I've localized the puppyhelp application so it will
automatically open a HTML file on your hard disk

For example if you are using French, clicking on the
Help Desktop Icon will open a help file that is in French.
Try it.

I've included locals for German, French and Spanish.

It would be nice to have it included in Fluppy.
It also works in Wary and Lucid Puppy.

Download and install these two pets:

puppyhelp-1.0.pet
puppyhelp_NLS-1.0.pet
