Re: I want to write programs in java

netbeans.org, fun place to explore. NetBeans IDE is a tool. I've used it when I coded java. How to set it up/install in puppy, is a different story. Maybe it's available through puppy package manager. Good luck :thumbup: Edit: Also, one of getting started tutorials https://www.w3schools.com/java/def...

Re: Screen Brightness Slider

Here is the script file you can click on to run.

Had to add .zip to file name, so it would attach.
Remove .zip from name.
Right click on file.
Select properties.
Give exec permission.
So you can click on it, to run.

Beautiful.

Thx man!
