Nope I keep them in Canada, I don't have any in Australia :)

lang = de_DE

Code: Select all

LOC_SHUTDOWN="  Ausschalten  "
LOC_REBOOT="  PC neu starten  "
LOC_LOCK="Bildschirm sperren"
LOC_PROMPT="X-Sever schiessen"
LOC_RESTART="Neustart von"
sometimes it's better to leave the stealth-mode ;-)

For single words surely Babelfish would suffice? It's not a user manual you are translating here.

Shutdown. Reboot. Lock screen. Exit to prompt. Restart.
Translates to:
Выключение. Старт

Cripes ttuuxxx, give it a rest already. I don't think he's trying to bother you, but, if he his, he's sure doing a good job! You're doing exactly what you think he wants you to do.

Instead of fighting over a shutdown script, leave zigbert to reinvent wheels in peace, while you go invent something new. And if he then reinvents those new things too, we'll all realize something, won't we?


Incidentally, a quote I'm fond of, and which is particularly useful to open source:
Somebody wrote:Only fools compete to beat eachother. The wise compete to strengthen eachother.

Thats why in all future Puppies 4.2+ releases will be anti-Zigbert
gone are the following
4.2 deep thought themes icons&GTK
- pburn
- pfind
- Pprocess
- Pmusic
- Pwidgets
they have been fully replaced(other than Pwidgets) and then some :wink: with better software versions that shut down when closed, work better, and less resources due to the fact they actually shutdown properly :) 2 can play Zigberts twisted game.
And lets not forget over 78% wanted it the way I re-invented the wheel of 4.2. So zigbert can Ppissoff. So stay tuned it only gets better.

78% of who wanted what?

78% of the people who voted bling vs no bling poll (kill pwidgets) wanted pwidgets gone, it was around 100 votes. So I do have a nice size following that will enjoy a Zigbert free puppy :) well you can tell with the number of users replying. Anyways he has the power to stop this, But really it makes a better puppy to not have so much gtkdialog appications, really its not his coding which is faulty, its the library he uses, I wouldn't mind his apps if they were C or fox toolkit, never really seen any eye apealing tcl/tk programs, well wishburner is well equiped but I like the look of xfburn, k3b, (ashampoo burning suite <-- windows, nero windows version) etc, But Pburn with some of themes looked nice, wouldn't mind seeing a erase-cdrw/dvdrw button on the main screen with the broom on the cd icon like on xfburn. Hate opening menus to do basic stuff like erasing a cd/dvd and quick erase should be default when opening Pburn. Most would want quick format.

Bling vs no bling has nothing to do with a Zigbert free Puppy.
I see no point in pwidgets, but I would be extremely disappointed if we lost Zigbert's other programs which have nothing to do with bling.
I haven't yet seen a lightweight substitute for pburn or pfind.
Xfburn looks like it might get there one day... I presume it doesn't require xfce?
Searchmonkey is useful, but it needs quite a lot of hacking before I'd want to get rid of Pfind.

FWIW you seem to be much more into bling than Zigbert - posting huge theme packages and saying things like
never really seen any eye apealing tcl/tk programs
but I like the look of xfburn, k3b,
:)

In answer to this question that everyone is ignoring, and it really bugs me that no body is answering you, YES, they do still make second hand cars! I am making one myself right new. :D :D

"Pre-loved" is PC.

It's even PC for second hand PCs. If the police have one, then it's a PC PC PC.

It's PC gone mad.

Honestly, I don't think making a shutdown script after you had just done one was the brightest idea zigbert has ever had.

However, I'd "appreciate it" if you stopped harassing him and hijacking his thread. This has gone on long enough.

Hey, can anybody tell me if by any chance 4.2 includes a suspend script?
What does everybody think about adding a suspend script to puppy, and a suspend option to the shutdown dialogues? It would have to first check whether you have apm or acpi or neither (maybe just by seeing if the module is loaded?) and if suspend is possible.

Maybe take that idea and posted it on the only "Official Shutdown" script site and we'll work on it? http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewto ... 06&t=40923
I figure its better to leave zigbert alone and maybe he might respect his fellow developers applications :wink:

JERK for continuing this crap, why don't you and ecomoney join forces and really screw over as many people as you can, why not have a competition and the winner could get the biggest jerk of puppy linux award? !!!!
Well...now you mention it, I did write a shutdown script too. It seems a very "Jerkish" thing to write 8)

This ones got a "backup and shutdown" feature, so people dont have to waste time waiting to do a backup before going to bed (Really useful).

Its in the latest ecopup, feel free to plagiarize it.

Bet you didint think of THAT ONE did you Ttuxxx?

Some of us really old-timers still like the original mouse over menu for simplicity's sake

Unfortunately in this case simplicity can be quite hazardous
