[rox-users] Archive app

[Jim L. <jc...@au...>]

I'm just finishing off a set of ROX apps for use with a DVB tuner. And I
intend to put tars of these on the web. However I've run into an odd
problem that I recall encountering in the past...

When I try to use the versions of the Archive rox-app that I have, they
keep repeatedly calling 'zero install' whilst working. Yet older versions I
used to use didn't do this. So I'd like to avoid this distracting 'call
home' behaviour. (The app works, regardless, even when used on a machine
disconnected from the net. So contact with zero install clearly isn't
needed.)

I thought I'd try getting a fresh copy of the archived app itself. But I
now can't find one that I can download, extract with tar, and use *without*
the calls to zero install.

I looked on the

http://roscidus.com/desktop/

page which led me to the

http://roscidus.com/desktop/software

page.

This shows me a link for the Archive app (apparently). However the
'download' link on that page actually takes me to one that has archives of
rox-filer, not the Archive rox-app.

So where/how do I find a simple tar file of the Archive rox-app that will
work without trying to use zero-install?

Cheers,

Jim
