Right-click-Easy PET

Puppy Forum member don570 created this sometime ago, see forum thread:

And a special one for EasyOS:

http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=113208

I have added it to the Easy 'noarch' repository:

http://distro.ibiblio.org/easyos/noarch/packages/pet/pet_packages-noarch/Right-click-Easy-6.9.0.pet

I considered adding it to the build of the latest Easy, 0.9.1, however, the 'pinstall.sh' script uses absolute paths, so is not suitable for woofQ (or any other woof*).

In woof*, the "current directory" is in folder sandbox3/rootfs-complete, whereas in a running pup it is /, when the package is installed.

So, a pinstall.sh should always use relative addressing, for example, instead of:

ln -s /destination/somewhere /source/someplace

It should be:

ln -s /destination/somewhere source/someplace
or
ln -s /destination/somewhere ./source/someplace
