musher, any chance you can get aemenu working in Quirky April 64 7.0.4.1 and/or verify it doesn't?

/thanks

Hello, Puppus.

I don't have a 64-bit machine to test it on. But it should work, shouldn't it?
It's written everywhere that you can run 32-bit apps on a 64-bit machine.

Also, as Shakespeare said, a menu by any other name is still a menu!

BFN.

he also said shouda couda wouda--i get a "cannot execute binary" error message.

...not sure why it won't work and am beginning to get superstitious regarding the whole thing, almost considering redoing the installation and leaving out the bad luck steps or whatever i can construe as such...

Have you tried compiling aemenu under your 64-bit Puppy?

all i've been able to track down is that .bz that's just an already executable file. is there some sort of .gz or .src folder somewhere?

Hi, Puppus.

The source code is here, but you'll need the "hg" utility to access the
Mercurial depot system at -- https://mercurial.selenic.com/wiki -- in
order to download it.

Here's a 64-bit package for the entire aewm window manager.

I've extracted the aemenu executable from the latter and attached it
below. Let me know if it works? * Thanks.

* If it doesn't, there are similar ones at http://pkgs.org/search/aewm for
various versions of Debian and Ubuntu.

works, musher (checked the park for the chess sets, but the royalty was all tied up. long story short, i didn't need tables-- periodic tables nor any other--cos one of mike tyson's (maybe bert's--can't tell the sets apart) pigeons (a little birdy, as they say) told me how and where to get it.

thanks again, musher0!

Haha, aemenu works on 64-bits too! I knew it, I knew it!

AEmenu 64 installed in the french Puppy ASRIedu310, only within one pupsave, due to security rules at home. Nothing explode.
on test bench... prudence !

Hi, pelo.

Nothing exploded, eh? Shucks.

it's much like fluxbox. there is some loose about desktop (bottom menu bar has disappeared since AEmenu on test. But i don't mind, it's to give a chance to new stuff in our Puppies.
Please, could you be tester of EASYCast of Argolance, dear Musher0, to give it a chance to survive ... or to die

it just adds a French translation, it's very kind of you, because english language sometimes give frenchies awful headaches. J'ai essayé de lire ce qui est dit plus haut, mais je n'y comprends rien, rien de rien. Pourquoi tous les citoyens de l'United Kingdom ne sont pas bilingues, comme les québecquois ?

Thanks for the invitation, dear pelo.

I would, but I'm up to my ears in a "Disc Central" project. See here
(my most recent "péché"). And the entire page, if you want to know
where my project is coming from.

You know Argolance can always be trusted to do a good job, don't you?

And it's 3:40 in the morning in my Time Zone. High time I went to bed...
