a power plant blew up in astoria while i was making the icons, but the file that grabbed the text versions of the two i picked for the ewp (black and green in upper and lowercase) survived. see a lighter alternative to the icon pack (http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic. ... 059#930059) for the file i used (included in the nwp in /root/my-applications/bin).
the spins use for the nwp is the same as general use for it, so that update is this update. from http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic. ... 08#1014808:
short form: install ewp1 on its own or to update nwp9 to nwp10 and get rid of redundant nwp/pwn menu entries.[...]
here's a firefox update (firefox64 32/64) thanks to fredx181.
from the notes and links document in the above folder:
_____________if you've installed the nwp, you may've noticed the (likely) dead firefox entry on the alt+1/left click menu. if you enter
geany /nwp/root3/9/root1menu
into a terminal and scroll down to the bottom of the document, you'll see something like the following (yours may be set to /opt):
<Program label="Firefox Web Browser" icon="/nwp/root3/icons/Appfffirefox.png">/mnt/sda1/firefox/firefox</Program>
fred's version uses a script called ff to launch the browser, and when you download and extract the archive you'll find it somewhere like
/mnt/home/firefox-64.0-64-bit.tar.gz_extracted/firefox64/ff
highlight the ff script wherever you've downloaded it, copy that path into the geany document you opened to replace the bold faced path above (which might say /opt/firefox[…] on your version), save and close the document, and enter fixmenus; jwm -reload in a terminal (or use the entry for it that's also on that left click menu).
tried doing an x75 spin but the ppm broke, the extend select geany plug in didn't work correctly, and the the cnt nwp shortcut (at the very least) appears broken, but here are links to folders for xdotool and xpad and their dependencies (contains the gtk3 dependency some installations may need for the recent firefoxes (among other things)), the main workshop folder, and the geany plugins i snagged from ubuntu after my ppm went down (i was able to use an older version of sc0ttman's pkg to install sakura....
Pkg - CLI package manager
(as i said, it was an early version but it looks promising. added repos (seems easier than doing so though the ppm), but failed to install either recoll or vlc, both of which can be dependency hell...)).
anyway, i'll likely move to bionic beaver (32 by peebee and 64bit by 666philb) next (though i have an x75 running that --has been taken over), but you're welcome to treat it like a mystery to solve (post the solution when you find it). here are the folders:
xpadandxdotool
x7.64.5
geany127plugins
using a working (xdotool dependent) cnt script/shortcut, i made the update from nwp9 to nwp10, ewp1.pet (it's also a small standalone word processor (update aspects will just fail if there's nothing to update)--83k).
here's its pinstall script:
pet is last couple of updates and will fix the redundant launcher entries you may have on various root menus. it also installs the ewp and copies it over to nwp/wp--you get one version to launch from /root/my-applications/bin and one version to launch from /nwp/wp. if you haven't installed mcbwp1 or bwp1.5, you'll get pop ups asking if you'd like to.Code: Select all
#!/bin/sh mv /usr/share/applications/icons-alt/desktops /nwp/wp/desktops #fix for redundant menu entries (sometimes docs, sometimes utilities, sometimes both) #rm -rf /usr/share/applications/icons-alt/desktops #swap to # from the rm line to the mv line if you'd like to just delete the offending folder rather than save it for future mods/launchers echo $' #!/bin/sh ln -s /usr/local/bin/defaultbrowser /root/Choices/URI/https ln -s /usr/local/bin/xdg-open /usr/bin ' > /nwp/lolf chmod 755 /nwp/lolf #nwp shortcut for libreoffice unresponsive hyperlink fix --lolf is the shortcut; copy the ewp over to nwp/wp/ and make desktop files and icons for both launchers: echo $' /* XPM */ static char *tmp_xpm[] = { "21 13 4 1", " c None", ". c #000000", ", c #00FF00", "# c #00FF5F", ".....................", ".....................", ".....................", ".....................", "..####...#...#.#.###.", ".#....#..#...#.##...#", ".#....#..#.#.#.#....#", ".######..#.#.#.#....#", ".#.......#.#.#.#....#", ".#....#..#.#.#.##...#", "..####....#.#..#.###.", "...............#.....", "...............#.....", ""}; ' > /root/puppy-reference/mini-icons/ewpa.xpm echo $' /* XPM */ static char *tmp_xpm[] = { "21 13 4 1", " c None", ". c #000000", ", c #00FF00", "# c #00FF5F", ".....................", ".######..#...#.#####.", ".#.......#...#.#....#", ".#.......#...#.#....#", ".#.......#...#.#....#", ".####....#...#.#....#", ".#.......#...#.#####.", ".#.......#.#.#.#.....", ".#.......#.#.#.#.....", ".#.......#.#.#.#.....", ".######...#.#..#.....", ".....................", ".....................", ""}; ' > /root/puppy-reference/mini-icons/ewpnwp.xpm cp -f /root/my-applications/ewp--EmergencyWordProcessor.html /nwp/wp/ewp--EmergencyWordProcessor.html #copy the file/word processor to the nwp itself (it'll be in the wp folder set to launch with your default browser.) echo $' [Desktop Entry] Encoding=UTF-8 Name=EWP Icon=/root/puppy-reference/mini-icons/ewpnwp.xpm Comment=ewp out of /nwp/wp Exec=defaultbrowser /nwp/wp/ewp--EmergencyWordProcessor.html Terminal=false Type=Application Categories=WordProcessor GenericName=ewp--EmergencyWordProcessor.html ' > /usr/share/applications/ewp-nwp.desktop #EWP outta nwp, ewp outta /root//my-apps echo $' [Desktop Entry] Encoding=UTF-8 Name=ewp Icon=/root/puppy-reference/mini-icons/ewpa.xpm Comment=ewp out of my apps bin Exec=defaultbrowser /root/my-applications/ewp--EmergencyWordProcessor.html Terminal=false Type=Application Categories=WordProcessor GenericName=ewp--EmergencyWordProcessor.html ' > /usr/share/applications/ewp-a.desktop #this stand alone is also an update and fix for the nwp (9 to 10), which would include the following two pets: petget /tmp/bwp1.5.pet petget /tmp/mcbwp1.pet fixmenus jwm -reload
lolf (libre office link fix) is a new shortcut--run it if you notice your hyperlinks not opening correctly in libreoffice (see link to mow9902's post above for more).
enjoy!

bonus content:
add a mkdir -p /nwp/wp/ before the cp -f /root/my-applications/ewp--EmergencyWordProcessor.html /nwp/wp/ewp--EmergencyWordProcessor.html line or run it in a terminal before running the pet or install script if you don't have the nwp folder installed and would like two copies/locations from which to launch the The Emergency Word Processor--download the html version to /root/my-applications/bin and then run the pinstall script above (dump it into a terminal) and you'd have the ewp but not the bwp(1.5) or mcbwp(1).
if you don't have the nwp but would still like two locations for the ewp, copy the one from /root/my-applications/bin to wherever you like and change the Exec= line in the desktop file to reflect the browser you're using and where you've put the file.

here's the pet again:
ewp1.pet
here are forum attachments for the ewp.pet and The Emergency Word Processor as as a single html file (download the latter to /root/my-applications/bin and change the cp -f and exec= lines above to match your setup and you can install it without petting it in by dumping the pinstall script into a terminal--no harm will come from the inapplicable bits).
