Hi, I tried to write this in the widgets thread, but it wouldn't let me because apparently a security token is invalid...It must not like some of the words in the code or something. But anyway, I thought that since it could be useful for any linux users wanting to use your UCI with extra widgets, you might want to put it in your first post(?). Your clever, maybe you can work out how to post it so the board lets you, I couldn't...



Ok:

For Linux users:

rm /media/COWONS9/System/Flash\ UI/h20_widgets/widgets.xml
{ printf "%s\n" '<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>' ; printf "%s\n" '<widgets>' ; for f in */ ; do printf "\t<widget>\n\t\t<id>%s</id>\n\t</widgets>\n" "$f" ; done ; } >>/media/COWONS9/System/Flash\ UI/h20_widgets/widgets.xml

Paste this into a text editor like gedit, and save it as Addwidgets.sh (or anything you want.sh) in the /System/Flash UI/h20_widgets/ folder of your S9.

You might need to go to a terminal and type chmod +x filename to make it executable, but I didn't have to in this case. Then run it from the terminal by typing ./Addwidgets.sh. The first time it will come up with an error that the xml file doesn't exist. This is because I made it delete the xml file before writing it again otherwise on later uses it would re-write the first bit on the bottom of the xml. Of course, there's obviously a much better way of doing this but it's the first thing I thought of, and it works. I don't really know bash but if you do then maybe add a if file is there, then, else type thing, but it's not needed. Anyway, just ignore that message as it still does the rest.

Also, you may need to change the bottom line of the script depending on where your S9 mounts. I couldn't find a way of making it write it to the current directory, but off course, there will be. But anyway, like this you don't have to have the .sh file actually in your S9, you can have it anywhere. I just put it in there for convenience.

I'll see if I can explain how it works some other time.

well you have to know I'm no pro-soccer Viewer.
just a simple person that just sees the game

I hope I didn't offended you yesterday in chatbox.
if I did I apologize.

hey dnw, oops I mean 'nw (why did you change your name?)
Have you begun working on Aero VTX extended versions?

can I ask why did you changed your name?!

Will DE get ported to J3?

could you help me with my post Thanks! Link

thanks!!

Hey dnw, I've come up with a modded music player widget of your VTX Lite...
and I'm wondering if it'd be okay with you if I add to your version (open source concept so anyone interested in making it any better could participate)

hey dnw could you resend me ATX Pro (or whatever the name of it was hehe) been awhile man
