howto use imagemagik with no commands, if its possible , can be useful to newbies ?

The menu enry and desktop icon run the "display" program, which when run without an image filename as a parameter will open a graphical interface. Click on the window to show a menu.

a single operation to change file.png to file.xpm can be done with the boxes of imagemagick.uci ?

I believe "save as" will allow you to do a simple conversion. You should also be able to do this with Xpaint and Mtpaint, although you'll need to make sure the image uses an indexed color palette before saving as xpm.

Summary of recent works of kukylabs in doing a uci file with dsl style (menus files and user.tar.gz) with no sucess..

1) i made the untar firefox20011 of the spanish ver(firefox.2.0.0.11.tar.gz) in opt i add with mydsl gtk2 0705.dsl and run fine (only some warnigs of type translate i think by gtk2.dsl procedures)...

2) i rename /opt/firefox by opt/esfirefox20011(i put first es to easy find the spanish versions in the repository).

3) i made with beaver /tmp/mydsl.menu/esfirefox20011 with the line

[exec] (esfirefox20011) { /opt/esfirefox20011/firefox}

copy a icon esfirefox20011.xpm to /tmp/mydsl.icons/esfirefox20011.xpm
(the xpm is the result of convert with xpaint icon.png to icon.xpm)
( i no made lnk and icon to .xdesktop to ver 3.xx)

4) i made a list file with beaver in tmp with the lines

/tmp/mydsl.menu/esfirefox20011
/tmp/mydsl.icons/esfirefox20011.xpm
( i no made lines to lnk and icon in .xdesktop to ver 3.xx)

5) i type in aterm root (how i understand of page 205 of official book)

a) # chown -R 0.0 /opt/
b) # chown -R 0.0 /tmp/
c) # chown -R 1001.50 /home/dsl/
d) # chown 1001.50 /tmp/mydsl.menu/esfirefox20011
e) # chown 1001.50 /tmp/mydsl.icons/esfirefox20011.xpm

6) i create the user.tar.gz with

# tar -C / -T /tmp/list -czvf /opt/esfirefox20011/user.tar.gz

(its done a user.tar.gz of 50 kb )

7) i make the uci in /opt (emelfm) with

# mkisofs -R -hide-rr-moved esfirefox20011 | create_compressed_fs - 65536 > /tmp/esfirefox20011.uci (and the uci its done after several lines of iso...)

8) test the uci (a or b).

a) i copy the uci in sda1 and rename the original /opt/esfirefox20011 by /opt/aesfirefox20011 and do the same in tmp / mydsl.menu/ and tmp/ mydsl.icons/ and reinice the pc.

b) run the dsl iso-cd and with mydsl app run the uci

9) ...and the uci its loaded in opt/esfirefox20011 but no in menu mydsl .. if i clik in emlf of write in run box, its work fine...

WHO IS WRONG....¡¡¡

any can reproduce the steeps to know where is the problem...

thanks
