This program is a mess. It defines a bunch of functions posix already has, three times. This is my attempt to try to clean it up a little. Eventually I want to merge pass1, pass2, and canon1 into a single source with ifdefs as the code is 90% the same across these three. More to come if desired. Thank you for your time, -Chase |

Here is also a small patch for after the next release, we use sh instead of ksh for the find command in the file browser, as this will be the first step in detangling ourself from our dependence on ksh.

Would there be any interest in moving ksh to the newest master build after this release as it has parallel build capabilities, or should point releases be stuck to?

Hi,
It's been awhile since we've done a CDE release - almost 2 years.
I plan to do a 2.5.2 release sometime during the week of Nov 23rd since
I'll have the time.
Just an FYI if there are any patches people have floating around. So
far there are 25 patches that have been submitted since the last release.

Hi list,
I tried to build cde on
`.::///+:/-. --///+//-:`` ro...@pi...
`+oooooooooooo: `+oooooooooooo: --------------------
/oooo++//ooooo: ooooo+//+ooooo. OS: Raspbian GNU/Linux 12

First of all, the build wiki needs to be updated to honor configure
I was successful to run
./configure --enable-german --enable-french --enable-italian
(I don't need others, I guess jp and gr will work as well)
gencat fails e.g. with
LANG=it_IT.UTF-8 gencat dtpad.cat dtpad.msg || rm -f dtpad.cat
dtpad.msg:102: invalid character: message ignored
dtpad.msg:120: invalid character: message ignored
dtpad.msg:153: invalid character: message ignored
I was able to fix this with adding
$ codeset=utf-8
as first line to all affectes msg and tmsg files.
root@pi2:~/cde-2.5.2/programs/localized/de_DE.UTF-8/msg# head -5 dtpad.msg
$ codeset=utf-8
$ $TOG: dtpad.msg /main/20 1999/09/15 14:19:25 mgreess $
$

This might also work on other OS

Thanks! Pages updated.

Hi Jon, The page referencing slackermedia.info is https://sourceforge.net/p/cdesktopenv/wiki/SupportedPlatforms/ line Slackware 14.0 The build instructions for Slackware https://sourceforge.net/p/cdesktopenv/wiki/Slackware/ could also reference the slackbuild script.

Hi Edmond, Can you tell me what page this slackermedia.info is? I do not see it on the Slackware page at: https://sourceforge.net/p/cdesktopenv/wiki/Slackware/ I have no idea what's been tested in that regard, so I'm more than happy to added a newer slackbuild link. -jon On 9/14/25 06:17, Edmond Orignac via cdesktopenv-devel wrote: > > There is a Slackbuild (shell script to build CDE on Slackware) by > Dan-Simon Myrland <mailto:dansimon at radiotube dot org> at > > https://slackbuilds.org/repository/15.0/desktop/cde/ > > on Slackbuilds.org.

There is a Slackbuild (shell script to build CDE on Slackware) by Dan-Simon Myrland <mailto:dansimon at radiotube dot org> at https://slackbuilds.org/repository/15.0/desktop/cde/ on Slackbuilds.org. The script uses autotools to build for 32bit and 64bit Intel (but not ARM). The Wiki points to an older slackbuild script from slackermedia.info that was created in 2021. Has the slackermedia.info script been tested with recent (post autotools) sources ? If not, it would be useful to point to the more recent script. |

Have you tried switching with ctrl-alt-F9 already? you should see your dtlogin there. If it's not running there, have a look at the X-Server logs. If it goes down, you should find a reason there. |

I don't have a FreeBSD box on hand to check, but is it supposed to be on VT1? I thought X traditionally took VT7.

Hello! I have a VM with FreeBSD and cde-devel from ports. If I hit Ctrl+Alt+F2 and then go back to F1, dtlogin is gone and the normal console login prompt is there. Is that a feature or is something faulty? -- kind regards Marco Send unsolicited bulk mail to 174...@st... |

Hi,
I have made some progress on the origin of the segmentation fault when
using XmTextFieldSetString $TEXT0 "string" in a dtksh script.
Running the script with LANG=C does not produce a segfault, but with the
locale LANG=fr_FR.UTF-8
dtksh segfaults. It looks like a problem with dtksh handling of strings
in XmTextFieldSetString in (some ?)
UTF-8 locales since I haven't seen the same problem with xmaddressbook
that also uses XmTextSetString. A simple workaround is to add LANG=C
just after #!/usr/dt/bin/dtksh.

I have noticed a curious behavior in dtcreate when trying to bing icon selection of application file selection popups. Clicking on the button to search for an icon brings a popup window 'Create action search', but the window remains empty. It does not react to clicks or keyboard presses and does not close when pressing Alt+F4 or selecting Close in the Window menu. Trying to close dtcreate by Alt+F4 brings a selection menu asking whether to close without saving, close with saving or cancel close. But this menu never gets the focus, only the empty icon search menu does. the ps -elf output gives 0 S edmond 11145 10753 0 80 0 - 7712 do_pol 10:13 pts/3 00:00:00 dtcreate dtcreate can then be killed with signal 3 or 15. Under gdb, stopping dtcreate by Ctrl-C when the popup for icon selection is opened gives a backtrace 0 0x00007ffff776fb97 in poll () from /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6 #1 0x00007ffff7a05991 in _XtWaitForSomething () from /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libXt.so.6 #2 0x00007ffff7a07438 in XtAppProcessEvent () from /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libXt.so.6 #3 0x00007ffff79fc49b in XtAppMainLoop () from /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libXt.so.6 #4 0x000055555555b026 in main (argc=<optimized out>, argv=<optimized out>) at main.c:1542 line 1542 in main.c does some tooltalk calls, but this is probably a red herring. The icon search path seems correct, XMICONBMSEARCHPATH=/home/edmond/.dt/icons/%B%M.bm:/home/edmond/.dt/icons/%B%M.pm:/home/edmond/.dt/icons/%B:/etc/dt/appconfig/icons/%L/%B%M.bm:/etc/dt/appconfig/icons/%L/%B%M.pm:/etc/dt/appconfig/icons/%L/%B:/etc/dt/appconfig/icons/C/%B%M.bm:/etc/dt/appconfig/icons/C/%B%M.pm:/etc/dt/appconfig/icons/C/%B:/usr/dt/appconfig/icons/%L/%B%M.bm:/usr/dt/appconfig/icons/%L/%B%M.pm:/usr/dt/appconfig/icons/%L/%B:/usr/dt/appconfig/icons/C/%B%M.bm:/usr/dt/appconfig/icons/C/%B%M.pm:/usr/dt/appconfig/icons/C/%B There is a similar bug with the menu used to associate a filetype to the application, with the popup being also an unreactive empty window that cannot be closed. CDE was compiled from the current git version on march 12, 2025. The last change to dtcreate from git log was on 9/9/2024 to fix an issue with popups. system: Ubuntu 22.04 LTS (Jammy Jellyfish) x86_64 X.Org version: 1.21.1.4 gcc: 11.4.0 |

Hi CDE users,
I was inspired from Mint Cinamon's behavior when using the function keys
for volume control and the resulting visual feedback.
I thought it might be nice to have something similar for CDE, so I wrote
the following script, named it volstat, make it executalbe put it in my
PATH (It opens a popup window that closes itself after 3 seconds):
------------------ Start script -----------------------
#!/usr/dt/bin/dtksh
max_x=200 # window size x
max_y=200 # window size y
run=0
onoff=`awk -F"[][]" '/Left:/ { print $4 }' <(amixer sget Master)`
volcheck() {
if [ $run -gt 0 ]; then
exit
fi
capacity=`awk -F"[][]" \
'/Left:/ { print $2 }' <(amixer sget Master) | tr -d %`
XDrawLines $DISPLAY $WINDOW -foreground black -line_width 6 \

I added it to the section in my $HOME/.dt/dtwmrc (the last lines
containing XF86Audio... , my mailclient added linebreaks, sorry):
