I have updated the following to support freedeskop and ondemand for v3.x of Core:
jwm.tcz
jwm-snapshot.tcz
icewm.tcz
fluxbox.tcz
hackedbox.tcz
-
Tried the new jwm with tc3 alpha4........the new jwm seems to over write my custom saved .jwmrc-tray in /home/tc........after startup, if I modify .jwmrc-tray to my prefered style(tray on bottom)...restart window manager..it works...but if I exit to prompt and ...then startx ......my changes are over witten again.....is this expected behavior?
-
I have something like that going on with jwm and mc2.11 as well. I put a line at the start of .xsession that overwrites .jwmrc-tray with a saved .jwmrc-tray-lee so I don't remember if my changes would survive dropping to shell and coming back with startx (though I think they did).
I haven't fooled around with the latest alpha yet.

Ah, I will fix jwm should only be the menu part not the others.
-
Fixed and reposted jwm.tcz and jwm-snapshot.tcz
-
Reposted jwm.tcz fixed all the issues for me....thanks
-
openbox.tcz menu interface files now updated for freedesktop only and ondemand support.

Thanks a million!

Very minor point with reposted ....jwm.tcz
line 14 and line 21 of ......tce.jwm....are producing error messages in /tmp/wm_errors
I think line 14 and line 21 should be...</Menu>....not </MENU>
(This error does not seem to effect desktop right click menu)
-
Fixed and reposted.

Latest ..jwm.tcz...good news..bad news
the error messages are gone however nothing shows up now in right click Applicaions menu
looks like nothing is getting put in ..tce.jwm
-
snapshot is ok. I messed up jwm.tcz. Reposted.

Re...latestt..jwm.tcz
Sorry to be a pain...but it still is not right..
Now things show in right click..Applications...first item for me is ace-of-penguines
as a sub menu the games appear...however all my other applications..ie emelfm etc also
show up in the ace of penguines sub menu., not as a seperate item as they did before
Looking at ...tce.jwm....the </Menu> that should be there after the last ace of penguines
game and before the next application is missing
edit...jwm_makemenu.....the line with :
echo "</Menu>" "$OUTFILE"
in earilier versions had ..>>.. between menu and OUTFILE..
could that be it?
-
Yes. My burn out from doing all the various window managers is showing.
I just don't have it in me to set up yet another test environment.
Blindly making mods to such that I don't use is not the best.
Anyway, enough of my woes.
Updated and reposted.
BTW, jwm-snapshot was working all along.

Robert, I don't want to wind you up, but could it be that the two FLWM extensions are still operating on the "old" mechanism?
-
Not sure what/where you are talking about.
Since FLWM and Wbar are part of Tiny Core and Tiny Core v3.0 is still in alpha, the latest versions are available http://distro.ibiblio.org/pub/linux/distributions/tinycorelinux/3.x/release_candidates/microcore/

Good point, I believe I was looking into the extensions in the 3.x repository (http://distro.ibiblio.org/pub/linux/distributions/tinycorelinux/3.x/tcz/). Which is not that meaningful from a MC point of view.
Judging by the time stamps of those files they got copied probably from the 2.x repository and have not been changed since.
