to remove duplicates, using a quick dirty fix (im too dumb to understand technos guide above):

remove all tabs and spaces fro mthe start of the <Program> lines

then, right at the end of the script, echo it all to a VAR, then 'uniq' then echo to .jwmrc

# ugly fix to remove duplicates that end up in the same sub menu
FILE1=`cat ${HOME}/.jwmrc | uniq `
echo "$FILE1" > ${HOME}/.jwmrc#

this totally goes against the shell only thing, but it works

[technosaurus]

Hmm interesting solution, could probably pipe it through unique when echoing it to the .jwmrc[/img]

[technosaurus]

I have made some changes to eliminate duplicate menu entries and added support for keybindings... It borks the pretty formatting in the jwmrc, but it works, so I will upload when I get home.

v0.9 is uploaded and ready for testing, see initial post

Ok, trialling this in Slacko on my lappy with jwm-svn572.

This works fine:

[technosaurus]

jwm -reload ¦¦ jwm -restart
This should work regardless of version

I hard coded the repository locations in jwm_install_menu_create because there was no standard and Barry renamed a bunch of directories on ibiblio and broke all a lot of older versions... Let me know if it is at a permanent state and I will update them. (i initially had it using distrospecs)

The only other thing I will add before 1.0 is pseudo-icon support, but I am still debating the best way, I was thinking about using $HOME/Desktop as in many DEs, and supporting both rox and jwm. Any thoughts on that?

My bandwidth is too low to download all of the packages to get the pet.specs files from all of the packages to generate the package lists (i didn't see them in the repo). Perhaps this would be a good thing to suggest to Barry as a way to get updated package lists (and save some of his scarce bandwidth too)

[technosaurus]

Ah, I was expecting to see them in each directory, that will actually simplify using wget to get updates... Maybe a checklist to turn on/off different repos too.

[01micko]

Ok, so I have .9 in the Slacko-5.3.1.2 alpha .. fairly raw, as in I didn't really hack anything. I did attempt to patch PPM, diffs and files attached.

It would appear that changing the window hight and/or the window tittle font size does not affect the size of the minimize/maximize/close buttons.
Is there a way to resize them accordingly?
Thx

[technosaurus]

They are hard coded ... As is the default icon (the ugly X) if you send an alternative set I can recompile jwm with them.

[01micko]

Wasn't that hard to actually patch jwm (newer version with older version icons widened a bit.), getting it to look right was another thing.

I'll post the patch and mavrothal I'll pm a bin for you.

The patch could be adjusted to suit your needs provided you know what you are doing with the xbm image format. Mtpaint handles it better than gimp actually.
