New slocate Wrapper
Posted: Mon 23 Feb 2015, 00:13
EDIT, March 2, 2015 --
Here is a mostly cosmetic update:
* Black ticker tape background effect removed from ANSI text colors in
__ main scripts. Please let me know how that fits with your urxvt defaults;
* More to the point icons (both with Creative Commons licence, as far as
__ I can tell);
* More to the point category in the *.desktop files: X-FilesystemFind;
* Both *.desktop files now use the proper "springboard" for the scripts.
(The search one was previously launching the search script directly.
Sorry for the oversight.)
Constructive feedback always appreciated. Happy file searching! BFN.

PS. Version 1e is kept for reference for the time being. The newest
version can be downloaded from my new "public" Cloud at SME or from
the download window below.

Hello, people.
This is the continuation of a project that first evolved through the thread at:
http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic. ... ost#824968
I'm being asked to create a separate thread by gcmartin so that members are able to
follow the progression of this PET. The move may be useful in the sense that the focus
will be only on this wrapper. The thread won't be "distracted" by other on-going
projects. BTW, this is absolutely not a judgment on the validity of those other projects,
it only stems out of a practical consideration.
I will try to progressively transfer all my posts from the former thread here, so please
bear with me. However the reader may miss out on the logic or the progress of the
discussion, so please refer to that initial thread if need be.
Thanks for your patience.

So here is the first installment (or latest version, depending on which thread you're
considering!) of this on-going slocate wrapper. It's already very usable.
