Welcome to LinuxCNC.org

I have ported KeyChoice to Qt4 for those of you that already have this installed.
There are no dependencies in the .deb, if you have the Qt4 libraries installed it will work.**

(I did it as an exercise in discovering what Trolltech did to make Qt4 completely backwardly incompatible with Qt3 (without transition libraries).
Suppose I will have to start using Qt4 now, before support for Qt3 finishes in many distros. )

regards

** Ensure that libQt3Support is installed

( Download now at next post )

Hi

Updated versions of both the Qt3 and the Qt4 port of KeyChoice attached.

It now appends the new key bindings to the end of ~/.axisrc, if it already exists.
It still backs up .axisrc as well, found this was more convenient, even though I don't have anything much in it any more.

Hello Arceye

I downloaded your editor, installed "sudo apt-get install libqt3-mt" in my "srt@Cinci:~/linuxcnc-dev$ " directory.

Do I do the "sudo dpkg -i keychoice_0.1-2_i386.deb" on that same line or do I need to go to

"srt@Cinci:~/linuxcnc-dev/src$" to apply it?

Hi
It does not matter which directory you are in, so long as that is where the .deb is. dpkg will copy files to the correct absolute paths

If you wanted to keep it in a logical place, move the deb to /var/cache/apt/archives, as that is where the other packages you have downloaded since installation will be.

regards

I keep getting this error

srt@Cinci:~/linuxcnc-dev$ sudo dpkg -i keychoice_0.1-2_i386.debdpkg: error processing keychoice_0.1-2_i386.deb (--install):
cannot access archive: No such file or directory
Errors were encountered while processing:
keychoice_0.1-2_i386.deb
srt@Cinci:~/linuxcnc-dev$


I downloaded the zip folder, placed the download in my -dev folder, right clicked extract all, then did the terminal commands.

Any thoughts

If that is exactly what you are typing in, it is because the .deb is now called keychoice_1-2_i386.deb in this zip package

Do a ls in the directory, or even easier just enter sudo dpkg -i keychoice then press the Tab key and bash auto completion will fill in the rest
