| Shell Scripts & RPMS for Linux | |
|
Go to RPMS section Mkbbmenu is a script with which you can make a
menu for the Blackbox Window Manager. It uses cdialog-0.9a
The Console Menus are bash-shell menu-scripts
for Linux. Updated on 15th of June 2000
INSTALL: Change to the directory where the conmen RPM is located.
Compile it and put it in /usr/bin or use the RPM that comes with Mandrake 7.0. If you have Xdialog you can run it in X. ( type "xmen" in an xterm). You need the small program qprompt for some menus. Also, I recommend installing kcd
on your system, it will make directory
You need sudo for some items to be run as root.
Things these scripts do:
another printer you have to edit things). "savegames" in users home directory. "sudo runxquake" or "sudo runxquake 2" in an xterm). As you can see, you need sudo if you want to run things as user. (you can keep different source trees). chatscripts, resolv.conf, and ppp-options will be generated automatically. All these things can be turned on or off by root for different users. You can put /usr/bin/conmen in your /etc/passwd
file to use this program
because some things are specific to my own system (however, I,m trying to rule out differences as much as i can). I am running Mandrake 7.0. If anyone knows how to set things up in a better
way, then please
I have rolled a collection of RPMS out of
some tarballs I found on the internet.
These are not nice and shiny KDE or GNOME applications.
