Alright!

Generally yes (not in all cases, though), but it was more straightforward to add it to all available MIME-Types.

Code: Select all
#BK[ ! -d "${RC_PATH}/.inode_unknown" ] && mkdir "${RC_PATH}/.inode_unknown"
I don't quite remember what was this special case for...
Code: Select all
#BK[ ! -d "${RC_PATH}/.group" ] && mkdir "${RC_PATH}/.group"
This enables PackIt menu option for multiple items of the same or (and that's important) different MIME-Types.
I think '.group' wasn't implemented in the original ROX, but is supported by some of its forks (
jun7's for sure).
There's also '.all', that adds menu item for all MIME-Types, which would be the best option for PackIt, but again it's not supported by the original ROX.
BarryK wrote:Also, the search for mime folders will ignore any without "_" in it. For example, ".text", as again, this causes duplicate entries in the menu.
Interesting, I don't have '.text' dir in Fatdog, but indeed adding it creates a duplicate.
However, just installed PackIt in easy-2.2.11 and clicking a text/plain file shows only one PackIt menu item, even if '.text' dir also contains PackIt symlink.
In fact, I didn't see a duplicate menu entry for PackIt in Easy at all...
In Fatdog I see the duplicates only if I select multiple items of the same MIME-Type and it's caused by '.group'.
EDIT: unless you mean the 'SendTo/OpenWith' case? Yeah, there are some duplicates, but IIRC fixing it would also disable PackIt in the root menu in some cases...

Oh, that's because the 2nd .desktop file in AppDir has 'Categories=X-Utility-package;', should be just 'Utility'. And dir2pet picks up the wrong one.
Thanks!
EDIT: I reuploaded the .pet with corrected category.
