gtklepin looks interesting - as far as I can tell it is used as a list prioritiser so that each list entry can be moved up or down as required. (I have been looking for something like that for some time...)

One thing I don't understand is why the contents of each entry does not display automatically once you bring it to the top of the list - you have to bring it up then click it.

Maybe I'm using it wrong. Anyone used gtklepin?

(EDIT : I have also emailed Luc - the author of gtklepin to ask if he can add a feature allowing the window to display automatically once the tab is raised to top position)

Tried the gtk dillo too - very refreshing to be able to browse so fast. No waiting for google-analytics and ads etc.

Nice to have all these GTK1 apps available (I've also downloaded to try). As far as prioritising notebook tabs though, it's fair to mention that you can do the same in geany in the sense that tabs can be dragged/dropped anywhere you like in the top bar. I often arrange/group stuff I'm reading in that fashion. Same with most webbrowsers.

Thanks Wiak, I didn't realise that. Good to know.

What I particularly liked about the gtklepin tabs is that it allows you to configure the tabs vertically down the right hand side - so they look just like a "To-Do" list. And it has arrows allowing you to step the tab up or down relative to other tabs. Seemed like an electronic way of doing what I do with my daily job sheets.

Each sheet has customer contact details and some history info and I sort them in order to decide on "next job" or discard them once the job is done.

I have tried doing this with a flat file database structure but not successfully.

When I saw how gtklepin works I thought it might suit my application.

gxmessage-2.12.0 back ported to gtk1 - diff file and static linked binary (upxed) attached. The diff adds example scripts to test the various commands.
To compile use the Makefile.gtk1 directly - no need for configure:

Code: Select all

make -f Makefile.gtk1

Hello amigo: https://trmusson.dreamhosters.com/stuff/ contains the original source. Hope everything is well in DE!

s243a: Just download the static linked bin (gxmessage.gz), rename to gxmessage and put it in /bin. In /bin create a symlink to gxmessage named xmessage and all programs using xmessage will now use the gxmessage (GTK1 version) instead. If you already have gxmessage installed there are probably no reason to install this one (unless for testing that is...)
