Hi Darryl
As a comment ...
Did you know that you can change the color of the "waves" from the volume icon to the one you want? example: yellow to green or the color you want with its integrated color selector
The new versions of puppy already have this "retrocon" program installed in "usr / bin" and it is activated by right-clicking on the volume icon and selecting "change icon color"
This option maybe you already knew but I wanted to share this info ...
Note: I just discovered it, it was something I didn't know how to do but I also didn't ask how ...
Cheers!

@ PipzDex:-

Retrovol is THE most configurable volume control I've ever come across, despite that it doesn't look anything special. But once you start playing around with some of the settings, well.....

I like my 'unlit' section yellow, and the 'lit' section red. I have it usually between half and two-thirds of the screen in height, and between 120 & 150 px wide. You could have it as big as a barn door, if ya wanted..!

You can bring it up, put the cursor on it, and 'slide' up & down with the cursor. You can hold the cursor steady, and 'slide' with the scroll-wheel. You can also just sit the cursor on the icon, without even clicking, and then scroll up & down; the 'tooltip' will tell you the level.....

Beats everything else hands down. Micko & Pizzasgood really put a classic in the kennels with that one.

I also use Retrovol on a WeeDog64-Void, where it works really well.

Well, I'll be hornswoggled. I had no idea you could download forum post "attachments" from the WayBack Machine.

I take it, then, that the item was attached to the individual post.....so that if the WayBack Machine has an archive copy of a specific page, with given posts that have attachments, then those attachments also are available for download..?

Must be. I've just downloaded that re-worked Retrovol from rg66 & Geoff..!

You live & learn... (*chuckles*)
