rox with transmision bar ??

[pp4mnklinux]

Hello everybody:

I uninstalled a lot of programs to make my puppy faster, and I deleted PCMANFM, now my default archive manager is ROX, but although it is really fast I miss one option o pcmanfm, that is, when copying or moving files, appears a progression bar, that doesnt appears with ROX.

Is there any option to make it appears??


-------------------------------------
I wanna know how many time I must wait.

CatDude's link is, unfortunately, dead. However, you can d/load this directly from the developer's website, here:-

http://www.adriancourreges.com/projects ... dl-section

Just in case anybody else is interested, like. Thanks for that, Semme; I'm going to take a gander at this myself.....looks quite nifty!

(I already have Java installed for quite a number of things, so it's no extra overhead for me.)

EDIT:- Sorry, mate; looks like I duplicated your link, too!

No worries, Mike. We're all <from time to time> guilty of "skimming."

ROX does actually have a progress bar. See attached pic. Don't you see this on your ROX when copying multiple big files?

Apparently this progress bar only shows up when copying multiple items - not one large file.

Yes.

Also it doesn't show a progress bar when copying a single directory containing multiple files.

Hi:

As u said, it works with multiple files. Is there anyway to make it work with only one file??


THANKS

[Semme]

Aside from pv and rsync, somebody could craft a script that opens a cmd window progress bar when ROX triggers a file copy, no?

[Argolance]

Bonjour,

when copying or moving files, appears a progression bar, that doesnt appears with ROX.

I have very often regretted that this progress bar is not displayed and wondered why the developers of ROX made this choice.
Many users from Windows, to whom I recommend Puppy and who use it, also regret it. As suggested by perdido, if something could be done on this side, in coordination with woodenshoe-w work.,, it would be great!

Cordialement.

Hello,

Rox use "cp" command (located in /bin/) and cp command has no progress bar unlike rsync.

I think it is possible to integrate a progress bar to ROX and the easiest way would be to replace or link the command "cp" with a script (called cp too) that "rsync" coupled to gtkdialog in popup on ROX. (but there would be the disadvantage that the "cp" command will always be this script no matter when you need it)

Otherwise, to avoid replacing/linking cp in /usr/bin with a script, you must modify the cp call in ROX to point directly to a script.

But there may be other solutions.

Do you want us to try it first?

Hey,

This is my modification of Rox-Filer, can show progress bar for individual file , work with rsync.



Regard.

Hi

This scripts show progress bar with ROX-Filer



1[EDIT] New version (1.1) now script use gtk progress bar, it's better because it uses GTK Theme
2[EDIT] no need recompile Rox, easy way : look my next message!
3[EDIT] 1.2 update script ! , better way
4[EDIT] fixed a bug with the cp command when an argument is missing
5[EDIT] My bad, I used "$1" "$2" too pass cp args, but "$@" better! update gtk_progress bar too / use rsync -ah = high speed
6[EDIT] You must have RSYNC version >= 3.1.1 (support for --info=progress2 option) and better secure off course
7[EDIT] update 2 scripts, now "--no-preserve=context,links" work, Thanks Mister Argolance for your patience.

Hello,
Thanks fabrice_035.

If you want the already compiled version I can put it on a server

Yes, do it please!

Cordialement.

[fabrice_035]

Salut Argolance,

Finally I think it is better to rename the original cp file(in /bin/) and name my script cp

For example, rename cp as cp_original (in /bin/ directory)

and replace in my cp script

Code: Select all

/bin/cp "$1" "$2" "$3" 

by

Code: Select all

/bin/cp_original "$1" "$2" "$3" 

and at end script replace

Code: Select all

# !! not ROX-filer , call original cp command !! 
else 
: 
fi 

by

Code: Select all

# !! not ROX-filer , call original cp command !! 
else 
/bin/cp_original "$1" "$2" "$3"
fi 

In the futur way i think it will be necessary to ask for a patch to add an option in the rox interface to choose if the user uses the original cp bin or use a specific script...perhaps
but now it's time, there is no need to recompile ROX Filer
But don't forget copy first my 2 scripts before rename cp
I hope I'm understandable.
So you can test what I did

Regard

[Argolance]

Hello camarade Breton,
... And what's happening when using your cp command in console or inside a script (as it is already the case in many scripts/programs)?
I copied the two scripts given above in /usr/bin and tried to use cp_ as if it was a standalone "standard" command, for example:

Code: Select all

#cp_ -r /path/to/source/folder/* /path/to/target/folder

and there was nothing going on.

Cordialement.

[fabrice_035]

Hey voisin ,
You make a good point.
My script asks who is calling it. If it's not Rox, then he only execute

Code: Select all

/bin/cp_original "$1" "$2" "$3"

And after testing command line copy i found an error.
You can move

Code: Select all

# cleanup
rm /tmp/rsync.log
rm /tmp/rsync_.log

after

Code: Select all

 # force close gtk ->

But If your question is to make the graphical user interface appear even when you use the command line, you must delete the start control:

Code: Select all

if   [ "$proc" = "ROX-Filer" ] ; then

thank you for your attention
