What is LTSP?
LTSP stands for Linux Terminal Server Project. It is a free and open source system where a Linux server is connected to several terminals, thus allowing a group of people to simultaneously use the same computer. Applications are run on the server, and the terminals or thin clients, handle the input and output. Generally, the terminals are low-powered, have no hard drives and are quieter and more reliable than standard desktop computers or laptops because they have fewer moving...
Note: shell-exec and lq-launch (the lq version) are now included in the mc2 libLQ d/load. They are in the examples/goodies folders and can be copied directly into your ~/bin folder and should be usable immediately with no changes to your paths required.

Today's Features
Clickable sequential backup utility. You'll need to create a program to copy it to the directory you want to use it in. That's pretty easy, but well.. maybe not.
[This is FUN!! It works. What a freaking trip. :-)]
The previous entry on using Old Style callbacks wasn't much of a hit. Ooooooohhhh... it's a hit alright.
But here it is in it's second incarnation cleaned up a bit though it needs a bit more simplification due to the number of elements that are involved and where they need to go. But this is cool.
Today's Features
Using a custom widget in Designer without making the plugin.
A Stand Alone executable QT MsgBox with Stays On Top attribute.
Today's Features:
A non-modal qt based dialog/message box that STAYS ON TOP of the window stack.
How to center a window on the screen.
Using the short optargs to parse the options.
The msgbox utility in the 'extras' folders of the mc2 d/load (see link below) uses xmessage for the display widget. That makes it independent of QT so it can run on any computer that has the X windowing system.
