Greetings List. On my home system, I use pon/poff to connect to my isp. I have a windowmaker dock app (wmpp ??) that knows how to use pon/poff. I have my wife and kids using this. I'm experimenting with kde (this is a potato box btw) and I don't really like kppp. It doesn't work with my serial card anyway, no options for /dev/ttyR[0-7] (I have a rocketport octacable).
I have made some icons that just call pon or poff. This works, but there is no feedback that the connection has been made. Is there a way to run a wmaker dock app in the kpanel? Is there some k application that uses pon/poff and shows the state of the connection? (changes color or something) Is there a way to wrap up(with tcl/tk, python or whatever) some shell scripts (or any arbitrary executable) into an application that run in the taskbar (like kmoon or that clipboard thingy)?
