[Openbox] Wine menu in Openbox menu?

Is there a way to get the wine menu in openbox? I mean in gnome its in Applications>Wine and it has all the configure, wine uninstall wine software etc etc and it also automatically updates when new software is installed. Is it possible to have something like that in openbox?

You could try making your own Wine menu in Openbox through Obmenu or by directly modifying the ~/.config/openbox/menu.xml

Can't find the wine menu anymore :(

Hi,
I've been playing around with my Wine menu, and somehow managed it, to remove it. Unfortunately I can't get it back again now .
Beforehand every windows setup that has installed start menu entries has created its entried in the "Applications -> Wine" menu, but now this menu is gone.
Although the applications still create .desktop files in "/home/johnpatcher/.local/share/applications/wine/", they aren't shown in my "Applications" menu anymore. How can I fix this?
Best regards
johnpatcher

Could fix the problem by removing wine completly (according to this guide) and re-installing it. This way I have to re-install all of my applications, but that is probably faster than struggling around with my applications.menu. I guess alacarte sucks a little bit, when it comes down to manually change the menu file(s) afterwards.

Restoring wine menu in KDE [SOLVED]

Hi, i'm using KDE 4.4.1 and wine. Before i decided to clean up mess in KDE menu, all wine installed menu items were under "lost and found"
As http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Win … Fix.5B1.5D states, i have edited /etc/xdg/menus/kde-applications.menu
Now i had Wine menu, but i didn't need all items, so i ran kde menu editor, and some items were removed. After relogin, wine menu didn't have "Programs" submenu at all :s. I deleted wine menu from KDE menu
Now, hot to restore that?
I figure out that all desktop files created by wine are in /home/bagheera/.local/share/applications/
In /home/bagheera/.config/menus/ i have several files:
-rw-r--r-- 1 bagheera users 15647 03-15 12:22 applications-kmenuedit.menu
-rw-r--r-- 1 bagheera 1000 3527 03-15 13:11 applications.menu
-rw-r--r-- 1 bagheera users 3527 03-15 13:11 applications.menu~
-rw-r--r-- 1 bagheera 1000 2349 2008-12-09 applications.menu.undo-10
-rw-r--r-- 1 bagheera 1000 2418 2008-12-09 applications.menu.undo-11
-rw-r--r-- 1 bagheera 1000 2492 2008-12-09 applications.menu.undo-12
-rw-r--r-- 1 bagheera 1000 2571 2008-12-09 applications.menu.undo-13
-rw-r--r-- 1 bagheera 1000 2647 2008-12-09 applications.menu.undo-14
-rw-r--r-- 1 bagheera 1000 3358 2009-01-21 applications.menu.undo-15
-rw-r--r-- 1 bagheera 1000 3373 2009-01-21 applications.menu.undo-16
drwxr-xr-x 2 bagheera 1000 28672 03-15 12:35 applications-merged
drwxr-xr-x 2 bagheera 1000 4096 2009-01-20 kde4-applications-merged
drwxr-xr-x 2 bagheera 1000 4096 03-15 12:43 kde-applications-merged
-rw-r--r-- 1 bagheera 1000 345 2009-03-20 settings.menu
Do i need "undo" file, can they be safely removed?
Witch file contains "wine menu"?
There is so many files:

Can't get Wine menu in KDE tried editting menu

I'm a new Arch User. I followed a YouTube video to get me started and I read the beginners wiki afterwards. I've been using Ubuntu based distros for 1 1/2 - 2 years. I'm loving arch linux since it is very light and I've been able to get most of my packages from either the AUR or the official repos.
Info:
ArchLinux x86_64 Kernel 3.6.3-1-ARCH
QUESTION:
I installed wine like this
sudo pacman -S wine winetricks wine_gecko
I noticed when I opened the KDE menu, no Wine menu was in Applications like in Ubuntu. ?
I tried following https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Wi … Fix.5B1.5D
But it did not work.
Can someone help? Thanks

Good to hear. Please mark the thread as solved by editing your first post and adding [SOLVED] to the beginning of the topic title.

[SOLVED] Existing GRUB Win menu entries don't appear

Hi,
Just finished a fresh dual boot (Arch-64/Win7-64), dual HDs installation.
I've installed os-prober prior to installing grub, and indeed a (seemingly) correct menu entry was added (in segment 30-see below).
Yet after reboot, this entry does NOT appear!
I've tried adding a respective entry in the 40-custom, (and ran ' grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg' afterwards), yet still the same (menu entry appears in grub.cfg yet does NOT appear after reboot!).
Please advise!
Thanks!
my grub.cfg (note existing grub 30 & 40 segments

[SOLVED][Openbox] Sub-menus do not appear

Just switched over to Openbox and was configuring my Menu. The only thing that doesn't want to work are my sub-menus. Using obmenu, I created a link inside an existing menu, with the proper ID of the menu I wanted to be a sub-menu. Saved menu.xml, reconfigured (and even tried restarting) Openbox, but no joy, everything shows but the sub-menus.
I have 3 sub-menus: apps-office-libreoffice (linked in apps-office-menu), apps-development-qt (linked in apps-development-menu), and apps-games-doom (linked in apps-games-menu)
I'm pretty confused as to why they wont show up, and google'ing around turned up absolutely no results, so I was hoping someone here could lend a hand. Here's my menu.xml:

I figured out the issue. I did have all three menus defined separately, and I linked to them the same way all the other menus were linked to the root menu:
<menu icon="gtk-execute" id="root-menu" label="Openbox 3">
<item label="Run Application...">
<action name="Execute">
<execute>xfce4-appfinder</execute>
</action>
</item>
<separator label="Applications"/>
<menu id="apps-accessories-menu"/>
<menu id="apps-development-menu"/>
<menu id="app-games-menu"/>
<menu id="apps-net-menu"/>
<menu id="apps-multimedia-menu"/>
<menu id="apps-graphics-menu"/>
<menu id="apps-office-menu"/>
<menu id="apps-fileman-menu"/>
<separator label="System"/>
<menu id="system-menu"/>
<menu id="apps-term-menu"/>
<menu id="apps-wine-menu"/>
<separator/>
<item label="Restart">
<action name="Restart"/>
</item>
<item label="Log Out">
<action name="Exit">
<prompt>yes</prompt>
</action>
</item>
</menu>
As you can see, all of them are defined, and then linked into the root window with the: <menu id="..."/> lines. I did the same with my Qt, Doom, and LibreOffice menus; defined them separately, then linked them into my other menus that way, ie. <menu id="apps-games-doom"/>
Defined later, near the bottom of the file:
<menu id="apps-development-qt" label="Qt">
<item label="Qt Assistant">
<action name="Execute">
<execute>assistant</execute>
</action>
</item>
<item label="Qt Designer">
<action name="Execute">
<execute>designer</execute>
</action>
</item>
<item label="Qt Linguist">
<action name="Execute">
<execute>linguist</execute>
</action>
</item>
</menu>
Then "linked" earlier in the file, in the "Development" menu definition:
<menu id="apps-development-menu" label="Development">
<item label="GVim">
<action name="Execute">
<command>gvim</command>
<startupnotify>
<enabled>yes</enabled>
<wmclass>GVim</wmclass>
</startupnotify>
</action>
</item>
<separator/>
<item label="CMake">
<action name="Execute">
<execute>cmake-gui</execute>
</action>
</item>
<item label="Meld">
<action name="Execute">
<execute>meld</execute>
</action>
</item>
<item label="Kodos">
<action name="Execute">
<execute>kodos</execute>
</action>
</item>
<menu id="apps-development-qt"/> <<-------- just like in the root window definition...yet it doesn't work here.
</menu>
Anyway...I tried what you said and just put the whole menu definition itself inside of the previous ones and it worked out, strangely enough. Maybe it's just an ordering error? The definitions did get pushed to the bottom, so I wonder if that was it. Oh well...simple enough fix. Thanks for the suggestion
I feel somewhat silly, though I really don't know why that didn't work. I guess obmenu is a little misleading
[EDIT]
Interestingly enough, yes, ordering was the issue. I tried moving the sub-menu definitions to the top of the file, and kept the "links" where they were, and it worked out. So for clarity:
Menus must be defined before linking them, OR just put the sub-menu definition inside the parent menu definition.

Menu, Button, Menuitem backgroundcolor

is there any way to change the menu , button , menuItem background color,
i know there is hastable for maintaing ui component color. and one can get the
that defaults value using UIManager.getDefaults(). which returns a hastable . and you can set the key with corresponding value for some component.
UIManager.getDefaults().put("win.menu.backgroundColor",Color.RED);
but that doesnt work.
but the following line works
UIManager.put("TableHeader.background", Color.RED);
but the following line doesnt work.
UIManager.put("ScrollBar.background", Color.RED);
i dont why swing team exposed the api , and that api doesnt works. :)

While it would be nice if we could expect all LookAndFeel implementations to use the same keys in the UIDefaults table, and while most implementations I've seen do make every honest effort to do so, it's not guaranteed. There's no reason why an LAF couldn't use a completely arbitrary set of keys, as long as all its associated UIs were geared for it. So... when you're trying to make changes to the UIDefaults table, it's always a good idea to check the LAF class. For example, let's pretend like we're working with the Metal look and feel (javax.swing.plaf.metal.MetalLookAndFeel class). It subclasses the javax.swing.plaf.basic.BasicLookAndFeel class, so remember to look up the heirarchy.
And we'll see that the key for the background color of a JMenuItem is "MenuItem.background", a JButton is "Button.background", and JMenu is "Menu.background". Those are the keys you set in the UIManager.
Personally, I prefer putting in a javax.swing.plaf.ColorUIResource instead of a straight java.awt.Color. But that's me.
As for why "ScrollBar.background" isn't working for you, well, it seems like it should, but you might double-check the ScrollBarUI for the LAF you're using and see if maybe it's not looking somewhere else.

[SOLVED] Running wine prog from Openbox menu

Hello everyone. I was wondering if there's a way to run a program installed through wine from the openbox menu? The problem I'm having is that you have to be in the directory with the .exe in order to run it properly. I can run it fine from the terminal but not openbox.
I've tried the suggestions here: http://crunchbang.org/forums/viewtopic.php?id=24893
Any ideas?

Probably the best formal way to do this is by creating a .desktop file for your Wine application and putting it in the ~/.local/share/applications directory.
In this file you would specify a Path key to change to the .exe directory, and then the Exec key to run: wine /path/name.exe etc
In the Openbox menu you'd then make an entry which runs a command - like xdg-open - which can launch the .desktop file.
(My own launcher fyr can do this, for example, but there are others.)
Using .desktop files is the "modern" way to launch applications!

Scan for and connect to networks from an openbox pipe menu (netcfg)

So the other day when i was using wifi-select (awesome tool) to connect to a friends hot-spot, i realized "hey! this would be great as an openbox pipe menu." i'm fairly decent in bash and i knew both netcfg and wifi-select were in bash so why not rewrite it that way?
Wifi-Pipe
A simplified version of wifi-select which will scan for networks and populate an openbox right-click menu item with available networks. displays security type and signal strength. click on a network to connect via netcfg the same way wifi-select does it.
zenity is used to ask for a password and notify of a bad connection. one can optionally remove the netcfg profile if the connection fails.
What's needed
-- you have to be using netcfg to manage your wireless
-- you have to install zenity
-- you have to save the script as ~/.config/openbox/wifi-pipe and make it executable:
chmod +x ~/.config/openbox/wifi-pipe
-- you have to add a sudoers entry to allow passwordless sudo on this script and netcfg (!)
USERNAME ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/netcfg
USERNAME ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: /home/USERNAME/.config/openbox/wifi-pipe
-- you have to adjust ~/.config/openbox/menu.xml like so:
<menu id="root-menu" label="Openbox 3">
<menu id="pipe-wifi" label="Wifi" execute="sudo /home/USERNAME/.config/openbox/wifi-pipe INTERFACE" />
<menu id="term-menu"/>
<item label="Run...">
<action name="Execute">
<command>gmrun</command>
</action>
</item>
where USERNAME is you and INTERFACE is probably wlan0 or similar
openbox --reconfigure and you should be good to go.
The script

removed -- Hi-res shots available on my site
NOTE - i have not tested this extensively but it was working for me in most cases. any updates/fixes will be edited right into this original post. enjoy!
UPDATE - 10/24/2009: i moved the awk statement from wifi-select directly into the script. this did two things: wifi-select is no longer needed on the system, and i could tweak the awk statement to be more accurate. it now prints a true percentange. iwlist prints something like Quality=17/70 and the original awk statement would just output 17 as the quality. i changed to print (17/70)*100 then bash trims the decimals so you get a true percentage.

well, just to be sure you're doing it right...
he above is only an adjustment to the OB script's print_menu() function, it's not an entire script to itself. so, if the original OB script shows output for you with
sh ./wifi-pipe
then using the above pint_menu() function (with all the other supporting code) should also show output, (only really only changes the echo's so they print the info in the pekwm format).
oh, and if neither version shows output when you rut it in a term, then you've got other issues... ;P

Openbox menu etc doesn´t show [SOLVED]

Hi, I really need some help here.
I can´t figure out what the hell is wrong with my openbox.
I had it running smooth, and because Im new to Linux and Arch I played around I guess and configured.
Somehow I guess I have configured somesthing totally wrong and now my Openbox don´t work as it should.
I have tried to replace the rc.xml, menu.xml and the autostart.sh with the defaults and still it doesn´t help!
When I start Openbox pypanel is supposed to be started, it worked before.
The only thing that comes up when I log in on openbox now is Conky and nothing else. The right click menu nothing works.
I will post some configs that is related to the subject and I would be very glad if someone could guide me
Btw im running Openbox with Gnome.

Ohh thanks guys!
It worked as a charm, and thanks Brisbin33 for the autostart.sh tip.
So the thing that caused my whole system not to work as it should was that I forgot to put a "&" after conky?
haha that´s kinda anoying I have been sitting and looking through like a milllion files looking for the answer
But again, really thanks!
/Neuwerld
that little "&" sends the conky process to the background freeing up the current process (your autostart.sh script) to finish doing what it's doing so you can move on to running openbox itself. with this in mind, it should be obvious why keeping conky in the foreground would cause problems.
also, replacing it with (sleep 1 && conky) & means... wait a second, when that's done successfully (&&) run conky, and put all of that () to the background. that way openbox comes up immediatly and only a second later you've got your panel and monitor.
all this after .xinitrc and before openbox

Python openbox pipe menu

I somewhat hijacked a different thread and my question is more suited here.
I'm using a python script to check gmail in a pipe menu. At first it was creating problems because it would create a cache but would then not load until the file was removed. To fix this, I removed the last line (which created the cache) and it all works. However, I would prefer to have it work like it was intended.
The script:
#!/usr/bin/python
# Authors: [email protected] [email protected]
# License: GPL 2.0
# Usage:
# Put an entry in your ~/.config/openbox/menu.xml like this:
# <menu id="gmail" label="gmail" execute="~/.config/openbox/scripts/gmail-openbox.py" />
# And inside <menu id="root-menu" label="openbox">, add this somewhere (wherever you want it on your menu)
# <menu id="gmail" />

import sys
import logging
name = "111111"
pw = "000000"
browser = "firefox3"
filename = "/tmp/.gmail.cache"
login = "\'https://mail.google.com/mail\'"
# Allow us to run using installed `libgmail` or the one in parent directory.
try:
import libgmail
except ImportError:
# Urghhh...
sys.path.insert(1,
os.path.realpath(os.path.join(os.path.dirname(__file__),
os.path.pardir)))
import libgmail
if __name__ == "__main__":
import sys
from getpass import getpass
if not os.path.isfile(filename):
ga = libgmail.GmailAccount(name, pw)
try:
ga.login()
except libgmail.GmailLoginFailure:
print "<?xml version=\"1.0\" encoding=\"UTF-8\"?>"
print "<openbox_pipe_menu>"
print " <item label=\"login failed.\">"
print " <action name=\"Execute\"><execute>" + browser + " " + login + "</execute></action>"
print " </item>"
print "</openbox_pipe_menu>"
raise SystemExit
else:
ga = libgmail.GmailAccount(
state = libgmail.GmailSessionState(filename = filename))
msgtotals = ga.getUnreadMsgCount()
print "<?xml version=\"1.0\" encoding=\"UTF-8\"?>"
print "<openbox_pipe_menu>"
print "<separator label=\"Gmail\"/>"
if msgtotals == 0:
print " <item label=\"no new messages.\">"
elif msgtotals == 1:
print " <item label=\"1 new message.\">"

state = libgmail.GmailSessionState(account = ga).save(filename)
The line I removed:
state = libgmail.GmailSessionState(account = ga).save(filename)
The error I'd get if the cache existed:

## This horrible mess is here for two main reasons:
## 1. The `Content-Type` header (which also contains the boundary
## marker) needs to be extracted from the MIME message so
## we can send it as the request `Content-Type` header instead.
## 2. It seems the form submission needs to use "\r\n" for new
## lines instead of the "\n" returned by `as_string()`.
## I tried changing the value of `NL` used by the `Generator` class
## but it didn't work so I'm doing it this way until I figure
## out how to do it properly. Of course, first try, if the payloads
## contained "\n" sequences they got replaced too, which corrupted
## the attachments. I could probably encode the submission,
## which would probably be nicer, but in the meantime I'm kludging
## this workaround that replaces all non-text payloads with a
## marker, changes all "\n" to "\r\n" and finally replaces the
## markers with the original payloads.
## Yeah, I know, it's horrible, but hey it works doesn't it? If you've
## got a problem with it, fix it yourself & give me the patch!

Obm-xdg won't show anything in the Openbox menu [SOLVED]

I put the code:
<menu execute="obm-xdg" id="obm-xdg" label="xdg"/>
in ~/.config/openbox/menu.xml just like it says to do universally. It does not show any menu. Every other menu item in the file works. I can edit them and they change. obmenu can see the entry. gnome-menus is installed. obm-xdg works from the command line. Why does this not show anything in the menu?
Last edited by skottish (2008-11-06 05:27:03)

Make sure you add the menu id to the root-menu list at the bottom of menu.xml:
<menu id="root-menu" label="Openbox 3">
<separator label="Applications" />
<menu id="obm-xdg" />
<menu id="apps-accessories-menu"/>
<menu id="apps-editors-menu"/>

Obmocmenu: Music on Console (moc) pipe menu for Openbox

Sourceforge Project Page
AUR Package
Screenshot
This is a simple menu for controlling the music player moc. I use moc version 2.5.0-alpha4 (found in the AUR) which has quite a few more features than 2.4.4 in [extra]. Still, this script should work fine with the moc in the official repos.
You may also be interested in obdevicemenu: Udisks pipe menu for Openbox.
Let me know if there are any bugs, or any additions or improvements you'd like to see.

0.8.4 released, with the ability to add a random album/directory/song to the playlist, a feature which moc itself is missing. If zenity is installed, a dialog box pops up that allows you to add the specified number of random entries (e.g. 3 random albums). See the configuration file for details.

HOWTO: Openbox Menu Icon in PyPanel

Using Openbox and PyPanel (or similar) and are tired of either having to minimize windows or adjust maximum window size to leave space for right-clicking on the desktop? Do you have a keyboard shortcut set up to open the menu, but also want to be able to use the mouse to open the menu easier? I have a solution!
Create an icon to launch the Openbox application menu on PyPanel.
This will allow you to click on an icon on PyPanel which opens the OpenBox menu, similar to Gnome's application menu.
Example:
Requirements:
Openbox Window Manager
PyPanel (dock/panel application)
xdotool
obkey - to edit key shortcuts to OpenBox's rc.xml (not required, but used in this howto)
Recommendations:
archlinux-artwork
Procedure:
1) If you don't already have PyPanel installed, install it now (as root).
pacman -S pypanel
2) Launch pypanel in an application launcher, or the terminal (as normal user):
pypanel &&
3) Install xdotool (allows for launching keyboard shortcuts via command line) (as root)
pacman -S xdotool
4) If you do not have obkey installed, install it with yaourt (recommended) or download the tar.gz and run the python script:
yaourt -S obkey-git
OR
Go to the obkey site or download the .tar.gz by clicking here
Extract the .tar.gz:
tar -xvf ./obkey-dev-abf0bb12.tar.gz
Enter the obkey-dev directory:
cd ./obkey-dev
Run obkey and point it to the openbox rc.xml (as normal user!):
./obkey ~/.config/openbox/rc.xml
5) In obkey, find an existing key or create a new key binding by clicking "Insert sibling key" at the top. Note: Ctrl+alt combinations did not seem to work for me to create this menu launcher.
- If it's an existing key, select it, then click on the action in the bottom right-hand pane. A window should pop up. Find and select "ShowMenu"
- If it's a new key, select it, enter in the key combination you want to use in the key (text) box (for example, C-M for Ctrl+M), then click the green "Insert Action" button at the bottom. Click on the new "Focus" action. A window should pop up. Find and select "ShowMenu"
In the ShowMenu action, at the top there should be a box for "menu:" Enter in "root-menu" in this box.
Now save by clicking the green arrow + hard drive in the top left corner of obkey. Now you should be able to use that key combination to open the root-menu. If not, try restarting the X Server.
Example:
6) This is optional, but if you want a nice Arch icon for your new menu launcher, you can grab mine. If you want to use your own image, it cannot be .svg, so I converted a .svg icon to .png from the the official Arch Artwork package (archlinux-artwork in the repos). If you want to just use mine:
Enter the following commands to get the image and set it up for the next step:
mkdir ~/.icons/archlinux/icons/
wget -P ~/.icons/archlinux/icons/ http://img297.imageshack.us/img297/1378/archlinuxiconcrystal128.png
7) Open up your ~/.pypanelrc with your favorite text editor (e.g. nano or gedit).
Scroll down to a line starting with "LAUNCH_LIST" Most likely it will have a line like this by default:
("gimp-2.2", "/usr/share/imlib2/data/images/paper.png")
Change the line to the following to use xdotool and the key you assigned in step 5, as well as the icon image we just downloaded (Note: make sure to change /home/user to your specific home directory!):
("xdotool key ctrl+m", "/home/user/.icons/archlinux/icons/archlinuxiconcrystal128.png")
Next, locate a line about 15 more down starting with "APPICONS." Change this value from 0 to 1.
APPICONS = 1 # Show application icons
Finally, about 20 lines down, you will see a section for Panel Layout.
There are 5 sections for the panel: Desktop, Tasks, Tray, Clock, and Launcher. They can be assigned, in order of left to right on the panel, with numbers 1-5 and 0 for disabled. Choose a location you want your Launcher to be and set the value from 1-5. You can play around with this by setting the values, then restarting pypanel.
Here is how I have set mine (I disabled Desktop since I only use one desktop/workspace and do not need it to say which one I am on):
DESKTOP = 0 # Desktop name section
TASKS = 2 # Task names section
TRAY = 3 # System tray section
CLOCK = 4 # Clock section
LAUNCHER = 1 # Application launcher section
8) Finally, kill and restart PyPanel and enjoy!
killall pypanel && pypanel
9) Tell me how it went, what you think, what I could improve on, etc!

Very nice guide got it working almost straight away :-)
Had to restart X in order to get key-binding to work though. And I put /home/username/.icons/archlinux/icons/archlinuxiconcrystal128.png instead of ~/ because somehow I got couldn't find logo error when pypanel started.
BTW sexy pypanel look you have. All the info in your .dotfiles link? will get to it tomorrow I guess. Thanks!
Thanks very much for using my guide and responding!
I will fix that ~/ directory problem and say to use the home directory.
And yes, that configuration is in my .dotfiles at the moment You can follow that link or just grab it here: http://dotfiles.org/~CheesyBeef/.pypanelrc
Thanks again!
