This is NOT making any sense, common or otherwise. The copy of
firefox-esr I copied to the /usr/lib/iceweasel tree day before
yesterday, then made softlinks to the firefox-esr executables has
vanished, yet now I can type iceweasel in a cli, and get firefox-esr,
v45.2 I think. And I've no clue where the heck it went. Not only that,
but the program (glade-gtk2) that prompted me to do that has also
vanished, but ISTR it exhibited quite a few signs of bit rot and I
removed it. So, at the instant, I have no gui editor that I can use to
compose working buttons for an addition I am planning to do for
LinuxCNC. gladevcp has a slightly better set of buttons than Tkinter
has, but that means I am stuck editing .xml files with geany, which does
have a decent xml syntax highlighter.
I feel like I could do more, and faster to a finished gui in tkinter, IF
I could find some docs on it. The linkage is pyvcp.
Any clues about that will be gleefully checked out.
Thanks all.
Cheers, Gene Heskett
