![]() It would simply leave a dead cursor where clicked.Ģnd I undid that process, and tried to install the debian package over the top of the pre-built using the puppy package manager. It could point, it could click, but it wouldn't open anything. Though any console command involving only the built in gpm would return "command not found" or "service doesn't exist"ġst I tried method of moving the bin and starting it with the short script. Gpm is built in to fossapup, I confirmed at the third step in the process. Let's see if I can re-create my attempts at making gpm work. I'm gonna say it's an issue that will need actual troubleshooting. Williwaw wrote: ↑ Mon 8:30 seems to be the go to guy for gpm troubleshooting. They've been around a long time and don't change much. It's good for viewing documents, as it opens all my default apps, whereas elinks seemed to have a hard time dealing with the puppy tmp directory.Īll of these applications take a considerable effort to learn and experiment with, but the payoff is their long standing consistency I suppose. It displays pics (somewhat) as I'm on the puppy forum using it currently, it displays all the emoji's, and sort of flashes the avatars in urxvt, added: and displays fully in tty. It seems to display pages in a more appealing layout, and even trees directories and places the files in a kind of paned layout when browsing locally. A quick strike of the s key brings up buffer history. Certain search engines don't work in elinks but do in lynx, and vice had installed w3m browser a couple days ago, and now I'm using it, and it's got some features that I'm finding hard to resist. 4 applications suspended, and then simply close in reverse mp>lynx>elinks>ranger> to the patiently waiting mc? Or am I liable to crash in that scenario? Mc>ranger>elinks>lynx>mp in this example. If in one tty login Ranger opens Elinks, and Elinks opens Tilde, does the terminal just suspend applications in a sequence? In other words, is there a limit? If I hypothetically had 6 applications that opened files with other applications, and they were all chained together, something like: start Ranger from midnight commander, view an html from ranger in elinks, open an htm file from elinks with lynx, and open a txt file from lynx with minimum profit, would I then have a chain of suspended applications waiting for the subsequent applications' exit? ![]() Ranger defaults to elinks for opening and viewing, so on one tty console there is a lot of versatility. Ranger is also a tabbed file manager, so it can have multiple tabs on different paths open. I have the man page for Ranger open in elinks, and the pup-forum also open in elinks, as elinks is tabbed browsing. I'm in xwin at the moment and bouncing between tabs in urxvt. It can toggle between a 'Miller' display, and an mc like 'two-pane.' It uses a combination of vim navigation/console integration and proprietary commands and key bindings, and those have a lot capabilities. This is one powerful and nice looking manager. Right now I'm hacking around the Ranger file manager. It'd be great to have the mouse since so many of the apps I'm using are mouse supported. Then ran a shell script with gpm -m /dev/input/mice -t imps2 in the script.Ĭopy and paste using the mouse works well. ![]() ![]() Then I extracted the files from the deb using uextract I think gpm automatically runs as a daemon, running in the background.įor debugging you can run gpm with the -D option.
