Re: MX-23 Fluxbox development

exactly which tint2 configuration do you mean with "simpledock "? How much is a "lot less" RAM usage? I think it's the first tint2 model, available from the tint2 selection window. Back when I was using MXFB, the original dock used several Mb of RAM more than just using tint2 as...

Re: MX-23 Fluxbox development

Am intrigued about your FT10 applications package. How compatible (or which part thereof) is compatible with the MX Fluxbox setup? I created yad GUI's to simplify adding and removing quick launch icons to a fixed tint2rc (handy if you want to use tint2rc "dock file" to replace the current...

Re: MX-23 Fluxbox development

Hi, everyone! I'm still around, and I do drop by to check the forum now and then. The reason I've not been posting is because my last machine that ran MX died on me long ago, and I decided to center my efforts in making antiX (that I used on all my computers, even dual booting it with MX, on my old ...

Re: MX-23 Fluxbox development

Hi, all! I stopped using mx because my only pc that had it installed died... But now and then I take a look at the mxfb forum... The only version I tested recently was on an on-line virtual machine, and I loved it! The most recent fluxbox version on antiX was upgraded recently, and it now allows too...

Re: MX Fluxbox Screenshots

Thanks @PPC for this really nice script. You are welcome, Ceeslans! The aim of all the scripts included in FT10 is to add new features to the OS, without any cost on system resources, so most, if not all of them fit right in in MXFB! (PS: I've been quiet here, but every now and then I take a peek a...

Re: time format toggle button added to tint2 manager

The Tint2 panel already has an auto-hide option available from the right-click menu. Chris Thanks for the info, Chris! I know that. I was just messing with Jerry, because I developed a series of scripts to simplify management of the tint2 toolbar, including the time format of the click and auto-hid...

Re: Jgmenu configuration- to replace the standard xfce app finder

I tinkered a bit more, and reached a simpler, more conventional menu, with a search field and categories. It's minimalist, moer in tune with the MXFB vibe. Just in case anyone wants to take it for a spin, here are the config files: jgmenurc: tint2_look = 1 csv_cmd = apps position_mode = pointer menu...
