| Quote (clacker @ Dec. 31 2004,08:31) | PowR_TocH, that depends on what the tar file you have contains. Is it source code that needs to be compiled, or an executable with libraries? If you downloaded it as a tar fille, try putting it into your home directory, the in a bash shell type
tar-xvf yourfilename.tar
or
tar-zxvf yourfilename.tar.gz
depending on the extension. Look at the directory it creates, then cd to that directory. Now see if there is a README file and read it to see what you need to do. |
How does this help us? I too want to change these to make them into DSL extensions. There are some programs which are small and useful. One is fluxconf a program to change the keybindings and menus in Fluxbox. Then there is a program called wmsetbg which is useful to set a background to fluxbox.
There does not seem to be a way to do this in DSL.
Am I wrong?
