[13:13] Hi. Running lxqt atm.but cannot get trojita email client to connect to a hotmail account i use. The imap and smtp settings are correct but my folders wont download [13:32] BlakeCarrington[: This question is probably better for the support channel.

[19:12] trying to actually provide an example for custom actions for open in terminal [19:12] trying qterminal -w to open that file path but need the current directory [19:13] these are qterminal custom actions? [19:13] no in pcmanfm-qt as an exmpale somewhat different than the manjaro ones [19:14] ah ok [19:14] so here's the section on actions https://specifications.freedesktop.org/desktop-entry-spec/desktop-entry-spec-latest.html#extra-actions [19:15] the section on the exec key is relevant as it tells you about all the variables https://specifications.freedesktop.org/desktop-entry-spec/desktop-entry-spec-latest.html#exec-variables [19:16] I actually don't see one there unfortanetly [19:16] if you need to act only on a current directory, make sure to set MimeTypes=inode/directory; [19:16] and then you could use %f [19:16] ok [19:17] i wish there was more consistency between terminals [19:18] `x-terminal-emulator -e 'cd %f'` or something of the sort might be more portable [19:35] OOOOOH an expandable terminal emulator with tons of features that does not require a UI toolkit. it uses OpenGL, leaving all rendering to the GPU, so less footprint on the overall system. it's got a cute logo, too. https://sw.kovidgoyal.net/kitty/ [19:35] c + python [19:35] latest commit 5 hours ago [19:36] wxl not sure I would want that in a vm though [19:36] right right [19:37] I know a guy that raves about kitty. I haven't tried it myself yet. [19:37] looks pretty rad given the feature list. i'm not one to change terminals but this is tempting [19:38] Sounds cool. I may have to give it a go. [19:38] I mean it is cool like how I like xfs but understand a good reason for it not being default is not able to be shrunk. [19:39] if and when zfs becomes rock solid, i'm all for making it default :) [19:39] x!=z [19:40] i am aware, incidentially [20:12] -lugito:#lubuntu-devel- [rMANUAL004518e8e06c: Add restart via stop and start in gui] lynorian (Lyn Perrine) committed: https://phab.lubuntu.me/rMANUAL004518e8e06c [22:19] I got in touch with the Ubuntu dev who helps with the ISO tester for Ubuntu and I'll email him tonight to ask how we can automate iso testing. Once I figure out how to deploy that app, I'll host it on my Digital Ocean droplet via a cronjob daily and I'll figure out how to get it to send out related reports [22:19] *via LinkedIn. He gave me his email address thankfully as well so I'll keep in touch with him. [22:22] neat [22:22] @SamuelBanya [I got in touch with the Ubuntu dev who helps with the ISO tester for Ubuntu and …], jibel? [22:23] Joshua Powers [22:23] ohhhh [22:23] yeah I know him [22:24] I also tried emailing the following mailing list but was told I was emailing the wrong one to get help with porting redshift gir-devel-list@gnome.org [22:24] I'll try emailing the qt one instead of the gtk one as well [22:25] ah [22:25] progress is good [22:26] @SamuelBanya [I got in touch with the Ubuntu dev who helps with the ISO tester for Ubuntu and …], We have a Jenkins instance you can use :) [22:36] Ok whatever works in that case [23:00] -lugito:#lubuntu-devel- [rMANUAL12058ec947ff: Add note on how desktop files show in terminal] lynorian (Lyn Perrine) committed: https://phab.lubuntu.me/rMANUAL12058ec947ff
