Yes I know I am not on the needed level but I want to use Next.
So Alpha 2 has same name as Alpha 1 then? only size differ?
Okay I test it and get back within some 60 minutes if I get caught up in things I fail to get.
Re A1. It failed for me to do petget wm-xdgmenu-001.pet
so I am a total Dummy obviously

Hey! You can't go there ... because you do better than I do with some of this stuff ... where does that leave me if you are "a total Dummy".nooby wrote:

you can install it straight from then Debain repo in PPM - it only has a couple of dependancies.
w3m is another samll browser (terminal based) will display images if you have the image extension and feh installed - again can be installed straight from the debain repo in PPM.
Next Puppy 5.0.0 Alpha 2
I did a manual frugal install of next alpha2 and copied my save file from alpha 1 into the new directory.
I ran bootmanager to load the new xorg_high sfs and rebooted.
It's been running for a short time but it's working good so far.

Darn it, found a serious bug in wm-xdgmenu
Here's the new version, has this bug fixed - now menus look more like the traditional JWM ones. I made it scan the menus in a reversed order, since many packages fit into "Utility" (calculators, file managers, all sorts of viewers, text editors, etc').
It's also simpler, consists of just one file - the Perl code is embedded into the shell script
Just put wm-xdgmenu in /usr/bin and run "wm-xdgmenu" in a terminal emulator.

Edoc, I am a total or absolute dummy or even a True Dummy (R)
I failed to get to mount my hdd so I could not find any pet going and had no way to get how one ask the os to find firefox 5 going and another so I gave up on it and wrote wmreboot in Run
that created a save file and next time it outomounted my hdd and I could find a Firefox 5 but failed to work and found another FF5 and that one did not work either and found a FF4 pet that did work and that one forced FF6 on me and that one don't have the three small boxes in the upper right corner so it fit the screen badly now I am using F11 so it looks almost usable.
Have not tested the other things yet.
Next is too steep learning curve for me. But I very much appreciate that iguleder share it with us. Makes life very exciting
One need such challenges now and them to know one can fail at easy things. Just read the tex as Devs say. But if one fail to get that text then one are had

I did happen to do it the other way around. How does one know such things?
But it seems to work or I have no idea how to find out if it works or not.
Where does one look to know if it worked or not?
Still feel good to try.

1) Extract it, you can do it with Xarchiver or with "tar xzf wm-xdgmenu-002.tar.gz".
2) Take wm-xdgmenu and put it in /usr/bin, overwrite the existing file.
3) Run "wm-xdgmenu" in a terminal window,
4) Have fun.

Yes I do appreciate you generous help. Trust me on that but this is not as easy as you seems to imagine.
I vaguely remember that return 0 is a failure and return of 1 is success?

OK, to make your life easier, here's the all-in-one code:

Look like I have got it going now. In menu it does show that I have two firefox which is a bit confusing. Maybe the other one is FF4 and the other FF6? Have no idea
But before I dare to make such advanced thing I just want to know this very easy thing.
How does one know if one have succeeded to do the wm-xdgmenu part?
I started all over and extracted the wm-xdgmenu-002 and that created a Dir named similar and in it was a wm-xdgmenu that way 7 kb big and I moved that one over or copied over to the /usr/bin
and then executed the wm-xdgmenu
So now I kindly ask. How do I know it it worked or not. Some easy way to confirm it?
That would be needed even if I did what you suggested now. Because that one most likely do what I already did would it not?

Then most likely it still failed despite it looked so correct or real to me
So you thing nothing bad can happen if one do that advanced thing?
Okay I try it. But knowing I am on Sda3 and using NTFS and you most likely using ext3 or something why would it work on my set up?
Does one not have to know some added things I mean to be in the right Dir or something when one do what you wrote there.
Okay I give it a try

Now I will look for that emelfm2 thing in Filesystems
Nope it is not there. Maybe one need to do a restart or reboot or something? I do a reboot to see what happens
Maybe a wm restart would have been enough but I had no idea how one do that so I rebooted and now ther emelfm2 is there in Filesystems.
My Firefox is still two and both start up FF6 can one take away one of them? No big deal though

Installed alpha 2 FRUGAL Lin'N'Win.
Activated my application environment.
As in alpha1, pidgin doesn't work due to missing lib's.
1 - libgtkspell. I have it and installed (learned that I can use petget for a .deb also)
2 - libenchant. I only found some libenchant-dev deb, but it looks that it isn't complete.
3 - I don't know if there is still another one missing.
Would be nice to have the missing lib's.
