It isn't necessary, all that has been added is the PDF field, there's no new text to translate. Thank you for this :D

Defaults Chooser 0.8.8

#51 Post by shinobar »

On the Precise Puppy and on some recent puppies, the default* apps are list up in the defaulet chooser option.
If they are chosen, say 'defaultwordprocesser' for the defaultwordprocesser for example, it makes an eternal loop and freezes.

Fixed:
# v0.8.8 04Nov2013 shinobar: avoid the default is set to itself, auto layout

Note: /usr/local/bin/defaultpdf is not contained in this pet. It should be made by the user as his choice or by the contributer.

shinobar,
Thanks, have got your latest defaults-chooser PET for inclusion in the next build of Quirky (which will be Quirky Tahr 6.0.3).

I made one change in the script though, as Quirky is using /usr/local/bin/defaultpdfviewer, not defaultpdf.

Hello shinobar,
I think defaultpdfviewer is a good solution, it is more specific than defaultpdf and this leaves the possibility to use defaultpdfcreator.

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
- Add defaultarchiver

Of course, these are only suggestions.


In the same time, I'm ok to create a GUI to launch all default applications referenced by defaults-chooser.

Woof-built puppies have, for quite a long time, supported 'defaultdvdplayer' -- see /usr/local/bin/drive-all

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...

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.

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?
