PingerPlot on Linux, properly, and three fixes for everyone.

On 1.4.0 or 1.4.1? PingerPlot offers this update by itself (or ⋯ → Check for updates): click Install and restart. Otherwise: PingerPlot-Setup.exe (github.com) (installs for your Windows user, no admin prompt) or PingerPlot-win64.zip (github.com) (portable). Not code-signed: Windows protected your PC → More info → Run anyway, and compare with SHA256SUMS.txt.

On Linux: install Tk from your distribution, then pipx install git+https://github.com/jamesccupps/PingerPlot and run pingerplot. Details in the README.

Linux

  • One pipx command to install it; it checks for updates daily and says to run pipx reinstall pingerplot.
  • Show in the applications menu and Start when you sign in, in Settings.
  • Alert notifications through notify-send, and a bell.
  • Match the system follows your desktop's light or dark setting.
  • Without Tk, it says which package to install instead of crashing.
  • Still Windows-only: the notification-area icon (closing the window quits on Linux) and full TCP/UDP traceroute.

Fixed, everywhere

  • Long hop names in the Timeline ran into the loss column; they're now shortened with "…" to fit.
  • Two messages named 1.3 settings ("Engine options", "Final hop only"); they name the current ones.
  • Turning alert notifications on no longer replays the alerts from while they were off.

The full list is in the CHANGELOG.
