GUI Dotpup for Icewin configuration
Posted: Fri 09 Mar 2007, 16:01
As requested by WhoDo here is a GUI version of the recent text-based routine that I uploaded last week.
It is also an all C++ program developed in FLTK as suggested by Nathan.
The dotpup will automatically install to /root/.icewm which is the default location for Icewin. Make sure that whatever folder you decide to use for the executable also contains the Icewin preferences file (called "preferences").
At 226k the GUI version is somewhat larger than the 47k or so of the text-based version, so the guys developing Puppy 2.15CE can decide whether the extra size overhead can be justified. The same main algorithms are used in either version. FLTK statically links to the executable, hence the somewhat increased size.
FLTK itself is very interesting. It is a very light, powerful and complete C++ development system and could be ideal for say a "programmers" version of Puppy. Might even be very good to include in 2.15CE itself.
Dotpup is attached here.
PS have replaced the original dotpup with an improved version attached here. Screen update can now show the toggled state and original settings can be restored.
Code is also attached.
