Hey,
more to come.

image

things below are half-finished forum posts I had to backup somewhere.

getting tkbiff to work:
download from http://expect.nist.gov/tkbiff/
extract tar.gz to folder (e.g. /usr/local/tkbiff320)
read documents README and INSTALL
open rxvt in /usr/local/tkbiff320
# ./configure
(wait)
# make install
(wait)
to match the internal sound commands create folder structure /usr/local/tkbiff320/lib/
move audio folder into lib
change audio playback from gxine to smack:
locate tkbiff in /usr/local/bin, shift-click it in rox to open as text
In line 3081, replace
if {[catch "exec $cmd -v $volume -state $audio(state) $sound" msg]} {
with
if {[catch "exec play.tcl $sound" msg]} {
->safe
now edit the .tkbiff (created after first use of program) to play the bark.au instead of tng-beep2 as default and puppy will bark at you when a new email arrives.

non-dotpup installs:
tkbiff email checker
easytag media file tagger (+id3lib)
snackamp 3.x (nice tagging abillities, autoplaylists)

organize puppy desktops with jwm:
add after </Root Menu>:

<Group>
<Class>Gaim</Class>
<Option>sticky</Option>
</Group>

<Group>
<Name>Newmail</Name>
<Option>layer:12</Option>
<Option>desktop:2</Option>
</Group>

<Group>
<Name>* XMMS *</Name>
<Option>layer:11</Option>
<Option>desktop:2</Option>
</Group>

<Group>
<Name>* Firefox</Name>
<Option>desktop:3</Option>
</Group>

Now the main "work" can be done in desktop 1, d2 is for monitoring, d3 for browsing.
