Hello PaulR

Re-compile the bugger.
I just had a quick test myself,
and this is what i did:
Downloaded the sources:
http://switch.dl.sourceforge.net/projec ... 8-6.tar.gz
Unpacked them (into
/root for this example)
In the titlebar of the image you refer to, we see the string "
Select Files or Directories To Add"
so let's find out which file contains that string.
Open a terminal inside of the sources directory and run the following command:
Code: Select all
grep -rn "Select Files or Directories To Add" .
which returns the following:
Code: Select all
./src/myfc_gtk.c:219: "Select Files or Directories To Add", NULL,
So, open up:
/root/xarchive-0.2.8-6/src/myfc_gtk.c in Geany.
and scroll down to line 219 you will see the string,
scroll down further and you will see these:
Line 238
Code: Select all
gtk_widget_set_size_request(GTK_WIDGET(myfcd.fc), 450, 200);
Line 243
Code: Select all
gtk_widget_set_size_request(vbox, 450, 180);
They are what we need to change.
The attached image is the result of using these changes:
Line 238
Code: Select all
gtk_widget_set_size_request(GTK_WIDGET(myfcd.fc), 600, 305);
Line 243
Code: Select all
gtk_widget_set_size_request(vbox, 600, 225);
When tou have finished making your changes,
run:
there's no need to do the
make install
Your new binary is located here:
/root/xarchive-0.2.8-6/src/xarchive
- NOTE:
It is considerably larger than the current one, so you may wish to strip it.
Now rename:
/usr/bin/xarchive to someting like
/usr/bin/xarchiveORIG
and place a copy of your new binary file into:
/usr/bin
Then fire up
xarchive and check if your happy with the new size,
if not have another go until you are.
Hope this helps
