Although HaikuDepot still does not enlist on the page for a search only the previous version.
I assume it should be refreshed somehow by a script or scheduled event that probably still not launched towards Haikuports (64.bit ?) repo(s?).

Anyway - with pkgman - it is available.

Please please keep this thread focused on announcements.

Updated GCompris to version 4.0 today, available for 32bit and 64bit.

Someone should post something here too, need to edit this one to be able to post (can’t do more then 3 in a row). :slight_smile:

And … it’s live! With @3dEyes pushes for the KDE frameworks up to latest 5.115.0, I’ve pushed Tokodon 23.08.5 to haikuports and builds have finished for 32bit and 64bit, for those using a mastodon client you can now install this on your system.
One sidenote (haven’t been able to fix it, but can live with it for now), on 32bit it crashes when you close it down.

Enjoy! :smiley:

If you like the dark theme(s), you can hunt down one of the many plasma color schemes that are on the net and copy them to: ~/config/non-packaged/data/color-schemes

With KDE framework being bumped up to 5.115.0 you now have dark mode available with Angelfish which wasn’t available before. Perhaps dark mode will be available in other KDE apps.

If you want discuss to display correctly (almost) in Angelfish and other qtwebengine based browsers, you can add environment variable setting to /boot/home/config/settings/boot/UserSetupEnvironment file.

export QTWEBENGINE_CHROMIUM_FLAGS="--enable-experimental-web-platform-features"

As explained in my previous post about Tokodon, those application that support color-schemes you can download a theme to your liking from Global Themes (Plasma 5) - KDE Store and copy the *.colors to /boot/home/config/non-packaged/data/color-schemes
For instance I used GentlyColorDarkSoftBlue.colors in this screenshot for NeoChat 23.08.5 (comming up after I check it on 32bit.

“batchrename” is a Tracker add-on and standalone application. Its command line interface is not yet implemented, however, so it’s GUI only.

It has a live preview, and will also mark different parts of a regular expression with different colors.

For the replacement text, you can include the contents of an attribute “Media:Year” by using $(Media:Year). If you use brackets instead of parentheses, you can also include the output of shell commands. For instance, to add the current date to a file name, you can use $[date +%Y-%m-%d]. If you want to use the date of the file instead, you can use $[date -r $file +%Y-%m-%d]; the environment variable “$file” always contains the currently renamed file.

It’s open source, available at: https://github.com/axeld/rename

It could use an icon; my imagination left me with this one :grinning:

The coloured patches is an excellent idea. Makes it so easy to see what’s happening, especially with live updating. The ‘Pattern’ and ‘Replace with’ fields are difficult for dummies like me though so probably I’d never use it. I’m used to drop down options.

It only looks so complicated, because the rename method is set to “Regular expression” here. There are simpler, but less powerful offerings :slight_smile:
