rendera-0.2.0.xzm 480 kb
only thing compiled is the binary, added file structure, .desktop file and included licence and man..
doesn't appear to need any runtime deps , not even fltk..
gimp alternative? i think gimp has some more features..
but it seems to do what it does ok...

Never heard of that. When not using GIMP I use mtpaint. I downloaded it and give you heads up as soon as I can test it.
Currently I am with my Android.

https://mega.nz/#!RbxCHLrJ!EAYKPNh3Z-62 ... LgPYxMNfNM and this is version 0.1.0.
Just install it, open a console and type "rendera".
Enjoy!

I just ran it in my LXDE with no problems. I had to start it from LXTerminal by typing redera.

2.get fltk source and unpack into rendera dir
3. $ make fltk

How did you create the module? Its man page should not be in /usr/share/man .
Slackware uses /usr/man .
And then it should not be called "rendera.man" either, the ending usually is a number according to the category it is put in, in this case its path and name should be
/usr/man/man1/rendera.1
Code: Select all
root@porteus:/mnt/live/memory/images/rendera-0.2.0.xzm# man rendera
No manual entry for rendera
[...]
root@porteus:/mnt/live/memory/images/rendera-0.2.0.xzm# mv /usr/share/man/rendera.man /usr/man/man1/rendera.1
root@porteus:/mnt/live/memory/images/rendera-0.2.0.xzm# man rendera
RENDERA(1) General Commands Manual RENDERA(1)
NAME
rendera - A painting program.
SYNOPSIS
rendera [OPTIONS] file...
Cave! In some Porteus enironments, e.g. 4.0rc4 there is usually not a single man page installed, so the above "fix" won't work, you would have to create the folders first via
mkdir -p /usr/man/man1/.
HTH!
(I hope the above did not come across as arrogant or similar; I just did not sleep very well last night and my brain feels like its not really awake…)

i just jammed it together and rather than just leaving the man out i just stuck it where-ever...

Now you know how to correctly include a man page into your module.
Cheers
