from default colors and an update for the above panel petPuppus Dogfellow wrote:click to take a better look at the default naming scheme and color layouts:
rox allows icon assignment to any file through the right click menu, and i rarely use that root/Desktop folder, so i've been thinking of it as an alternative to the menu system. a folder of scripts or executables, a folder of icons to represent them, and just stick them on the panels. swap panels and you swap the keyboard shortcuts you assigned to the icon--it's really very versatile when you think about it and why i chose an alternate location for the generated icons.
here's some more on panels:

you may not want to override puppy's default icons in their other contexts, so as an alternative to associating the above with the directories themselves, you can associate them with scripts that call them (either individually or in sets). the following puts some scripts and icons to associate with them. sometimes you need to restart X (or wait til you reboot) for them not to look blurry on the desktop, but they're generally fine on the panels and will stretch or shrink to fit them.
if you want a menu entry (will open up the folder with all the clickable icons--p1-p9 in the terminal also toggle them in or on/off):Code: Select all
mkdir -p /root/Desktop/desktops/{scripts,icons/{pans,defaults,dirs,conf,cus}} 6txpm "CR" >/root/Desktop/desktops/icons/dirs/6tcr.xpm 6txpm "JCONF" >/root/Desktop/desktops/icons/dirs/6tjconf.xpm 6txpm "RCONF" >/root/Desktop/desktops/icons/dirs/6trconf.xpm 6txpm "PAN" >/root/Desktop/desktops/icons/dirs/6tpan.xpm echo $'#!/bin/sh rox -D / #close all rox directories ' > /root/Desktop/desktops/scripts/cr chmod 755 /root/Desktop/desktops/scripts/cr echo $'#!/bin/sh rox /etc/xdg/rox.sourceforge.net /root/.config/rox.sourceforge.net /root/Choices/ROX-Filer /usr/share/applications/panels ' > /root/Desktop/desktops/scripts/rconfr chmod 755 /root/Desktop/desktops/scripts/rconfr echo $'#!/bin/sh rox /root/.config/micro /root/.jwm/ /etc/xdg/templates/ /etc ' > /root/Desktop/desktops/scripts/jconfj chmod 755 /root/Desktop/desktops/scripts/jconfj echo $'#!/bin/sh rox /usr/share/applications/panels ' > /root/Desktop/desktops/scripts/pan chmod 755 /root/Desktop/desktops/scripts/panCode: Select all

shortcuts assigned to the panels toggle in and out with them, which has both advantages and disadvantages (basically unlimited, possibly context sensitive; downside is your having to duplicate steadies if relying solely on the panels for keycuts (they set up the same way you set them for desktop icons--right click, edit, set keyboard shortcut)).
anyway, that's another use for this stuff.

you could of course also drag regular icons and desktop elements to the panels and not worry about icons, or leave your scripts bare and allow the panels to display their names. if using them solely to make swappable keycuts, just use one pixel icons--you'll fit more that way.
enjoy.
