.deb and .rpm, just archives X E.

Posted Today at 10:49 AM by maybeJosiah

For making programs for Linux, install some language or framework and work in that. .deb and .rpm files are archives. To make one you need an independent working program or script in a framework. There is no programming framework for .rpm or .deb except those installed on system which is either not existent if you chose a language that does not come installed and did not install it, or like you can make C and Python things by compiling using built in tools.

Recuperating!!

Hi,

I finally had to see a specialist and it was recommended to have a right knee medial replacement which is a partial knee work. I had this done on May 6, 2024 and have been going through recovery. My PT session are going good. I do my PT early along with my elliptical workout. Then I do my walk sessions in our clubhouse since it's very hot right now in central Florida.

Wrapper-script to launch a browser in private/incognito mode if keys control or shift are being held (thought for Openbox menus)

While one can do something even more efficient with pure keybindings, or maybe merely first launching the normal window and then a private one, I thought that it was interesting. AFAIK it can't be done purely on Openbox' menu's functionalities alone.

Code:

#!/bin/bash
xinput query-state 9 2>/dev/null | grep "key\[50\]=down\|key\[62\]=down\|key\[37\]=down\|key\[105\]=down" && incognito="--incognito"

echo ${incognito/--} | aosd_cat
