Re: Update youtube-dl

Can you guys use the mx-updater or some periodic process to check and notify if there is a new version of youtube-dl? The bash function would be: function ytdl_version () { echo "Checking youtube-dl version" wget --spider --user-agent="Mozilla/5.0 Gecko/20100101" --timeout=30 -q ...

Re: Toggles

I think the issue with toggle thunar is likely due to thunar running in daemon mode and not spawning another instance of thunar under Thunar --daemon Yes, the thunar starts, sends some data to the daemon via IPC and exits. When the daemon is runing, LaunchFiles method can becalled via dbus to open ...

Conky move

Conky will not move in Virtual Box. Not a problem, this script let's you select a window and move it within _NET_WORKAREA. Or you can pass a Xwindow ID of a window to move. https://i9.ytimg.com/vi/hVrLmquqj-I/mqdefault.jpg?time=1585788572747&sqp=CIzrlPQF&rs=AOn4CLDL61QPqg-6JNSZ7Bd0T1cwYV2r2Q...

Re: fluxbox/startup:disown: not found

"disown" is a bash shell built-in.
If it can not be found the process is running in dash.
In debian sh is a symlink to dash:

Code: Select all

sh -c 'yad & disown'
sh: 1: disown: not found
vs

Code: Select all

bash -c 'yad & disown'

Re: getting idesk second command to work

Well done! When I'm in the mood I'll rewrite this script to use one dialog.
The back and forth dialogs are not fun.
