Fantastic, HerrBert ! I used your code as is; xterm is just something I came across and don't seem to need for what I wanted. Thanks very much to the both of you. Now I have a "Windscribe" folder in my-applications linked to the main screen that does everything I wanted. Plus, I'll have fun reading ...

FredW

With the xdialog command, I find I can do all three commands by just separating them inside the parenthesis with ";" Don't know about the way to do it with xterm. Thanks again!

FredW

Thanks for the xterminal script! It really does what I want also.

And I have the same question as in my last post, if you don't mind: Is there a way to "stack" commands so they all can run in the same window or box?

For example, combine "windscribe connect Seattle". "sleep 10", and "windscribe ...

FredW

Thank you!

#!/bin/sh
xterm -hold -e windscribe status

works like a charm! ( Was hoping then that something like: xterm -hold -e echo "Finding windscribe status" windscribe status
would let me "title" the window, but it just printed everything after "echo". Hate to beg for more when it's not really ...

FredW

I have several simple files that I use in main screen shortcuts to point my VPN to various locations. They are very simple and take the following form:

#!/bin/sh
windscribe connect seattle

I would like to make a file to keep in the same place that would then let me check if the command above is ...

Kind of off topic, but...
I'm still using zoomportable64 in fossapup. It seems similar to the Windows zoom except that trying to "share" a video, although it works, has a message at the bottom of the share window saying that pulseaudio must be installed for sound to be shared. Also there are not the ...

The full article was interesting. However, "you never know" !

I read the article, but it doesn't say very much about how this search engine is different. I do believe censoring of the internet is a big problem, that the "right" is more censored than the "left", and that Google is one of the main ...

I just installed it in Fossa, but it says that "This version ... has expired." Do you have a newer version? The message also says to go to signal.org/download to get the newest one, but I wouldn't know what to do with it.

FredW

Thanks! Worked like a charm!

I like that it opens so fast, remembers nothing, and you can have multiple instances running at once. Very simple and elegant!

FredW

I've been using the Mullvad browser in fossapup but audio doesn't work. That may be because of how I'm starting it: neither the "start-mullvad-browser.desktop" or the "start-mullvad-browser" links would work for me, so I'm just clicking on "mullvadbrowser". I think I need some special "Puppy magic ...

FredW

Thanks! I'll try it.

I made a LUKS tool for that called LotsaLuks. Let me know if there are any problems with it. Read the pdf overview before installing so you will understand the tool and it's risks.

FredW

Oh, yes: I created the password the first time I saved the savefile going through the usual procedure -- location, size, etc.

FredW

Bigpup -

Fossa64; I know the password; yes, the password works.

FredW

I have a LUKS encrypted save file for which I would like to change the password. I have other save files, so it would not be a problem to access the save file externally from "another" Puppy, if that should be needed.

FredW

Well, it's working now! I had the same thing happen when I booted into Bionic. Then I tried Tahr64, and that worked OK. I went back and tried Fossa again, and it worked.

While in Tahr I looked up and found pupswap.swp to make sure it existed, because I think that was what Fossa had not been finding ...

FredW

Suddenly my saved pups are refusing to load. I enter the number of a saved puppy, the boot starts but with an error message (in red) that the "swap file" didn't load, and when FossaPup comes up on the screen I'm in a fresh OS with the setup dialog box. Yesterday it was working fine. I've tried two ...

FredW

I'm grateful for myVPN but it seems to me there should be a way to stop using it without bringing down my internet connection, which is what happens to me now (right at the point where myVPN says "Reconnecting to network") on Fossapup64, and causes me to have to connect again.

But I've noticed that ...

Personally, I like Telegram. One reason is that you can have the same login on several devices, unlike WhatsApp or Signal. Thus, you can have it on several cellphones, your Windows laptop, your Windows desktop, a Mac desktop, etc., all with the same identity. The only feature that is unique to a ...
