Hi,
I know that the repositories are the preferred method for
installing packages, but after installing yesterday >20
(Hatari) packages "From file..." several times in succession
(to test the packages I created), I started to wish for
following features:
- Multiselection in the fileselection widget, or
- Application installer remembering from which directory
the last file was selected and opening the filesel
to the same dir next time (can be forgotten at
application exit)
- After installing one file, application installer asking
with a dialog either:
- "Install another package from file? [OK] [Cancel]"
(so that I don't need to use the menus each time as that's
3 clicks of differents keys instead of 1 additional select
click), or
- "Add this directory as a package repository? [OK] [Cancel]"
(so that if I use the same MMC directory for transferring
more packages, I don't need to anymore use the fsel)
The file selector is getting pretty annoying after using
it the 40th time in succession when I need each time first
navigate to the correct directory (and before that wait until
it has scanned all the subfolders in a directory).
Btw. I also tried adding "file:///media/mmc1/atari" as a repository
(+ disabling the other tableteer repo), but when I refreshed
the package list, Application installer disappeared.
- Eero
