[System: Utilities] Bashish

[edit] _PLEASE_ dont use this package, its buggy and really REALLY bad.. i suggest using eterm if you want themes, the package remains for reference purposes or in the hope it one day becomes a reasonable application.. in the mean time.. STAY AWAY [/edit]

edit PKGBUILD updated

pretty kick ass bash theming tool..
its quite useless without a graphical terminal though
i was using xfterm4 but it cant handle the ascii graphics let alone images..
im not sure how the gnome or kde terminals will handle it, so ive left out Eterm as a dependency for now.

run `bashish' and it will create a new terminal for you

quite a messy looking pkg build.. but thats how the install is.. its basically a copy of the ebuild but a bit more readable.. look at the ebuild and youll see what i mean.. bleugh!

i havent copied across the man pages, i may do it later.

You have chmod 755 "$stardir"...
it should be chmod 755 $startdir with the 't'.

LOL..that's no good.

...and I can't make it work
there is nothing in /usr/share/bashish

Father · 2004-12-17 10:30:47

ill look into the empty /usr/share/bashish problem now..

some themes change the title bar to
"root# rm -rf /"
when you su
its meant to be a joke.. although i dont find it funny at all.. it freaked me out a few times and now it just makes me feel that the whole program is dodgy..

i think thats maybe what you saw

ive been using it the last day.. its quite buggy if you ask me... when you change themes / start it up, it resizes the window numerous times..
the more times you change themes the longer it seems to take..
when changing themes i get `command not found's printed during the sporadic flashing that occurs during a theme change... and su'ing... well.. ill just let you guys see for yourselves..
i think its just a glorified font / background changer.. with bugs.. lots

its cool... but... far from perfect..

i updated the pkgbuild with a different dl mirror.
i cant see anything else wrong with the pkgbuild, it works for me!

btw, if thats not how i should handle sourceforge dls, please tell me.

thanks

I don't know if there's any "official" or "good" way to handle those dl's, but I tend to lean toward not using a sf mirror in the sources, because occastionally the mirrors change, and well, that would mean having to fix the pkgbuild :? . I try to stick to using http://dl.sf.net/{projectname}/{file} , because AFAIK, using this will automatically make it pull from one of the active mirrors...not sure on that..correct me if I'm wrong. Anyhow, point is, that address is most likely to still be there next year.

PS: I just did some checking, and I seem to have concluded that indeed, pulling from this address will automattically assign an active mirror. yay!

edit: Nevermind I was wrong, checked a bit further, that's just the sf main site, but it still has a better chance of being there next year.

Well if a program's going to joke around about rm -rf while I'm su'ing to root, it kinda aint that funny, it's terribly buggy, and I also had the command not found errors. I dont suggest anyone uses this.
