BTW, I had no trouble making a launcher on the Panel. Right-click desktop > Create Launcher ... Fill in along the lines of my image below, where the command is just
and select an icon such as the free one I downloaded from the web.

@ Jerry .. Yes, I got that - error on line 22 and the "(". Thanks for the instructions.
@ Kent .. Thanks for script & fix
@ Rok .. Thanks for the post & theme info. Your pics of the launcher setup were fine.
It just wasn't working for me. I'll mess with it this evening. I think from Jerry's instructions,
I just need to add sh /script in the launcher.
Kern...

Yeah, I would kind of like to have it do that too.
I wonder those items could be changed to functions, have the main script call a function and then return to the index screen when it's done.
Maybe also make the index a radiolist where you can only select one item at a time.
Played around with it some more to make the mods highlighted above:

Kent - thanks for the script - using on antiX-15 and antiX-16.
However when choosing Network Configuration
Running this opens its report window but does not display any info.
Running the underlying command "ifconfig -a" in a terminal works OK.

I can get it to work in antiX-16-b5 if I specify the full path of the ifconfig command, "/sbin/ifconfig".
line 233:
Code: Select all
/sbin/ifconfig -a | tee /tmp/networkconfinfo | yad --center --title="Network info (ifconfig -a)" --text-info --width=850 --height=600 --button gtk-save:0 --button gtk-cancel:1
I didn't need to do that with MX-15 though, I'm not sure why, maybe something to do with setup of /etc/sudoers?

Thanks - adding /sbin fixes it.
