Lich v4

Oh, oh, also:

Have you looked at the download page since Tillmen updated it yesterday? It was a much better install process than was previously listed. You could cross-reference the steps you've taken with that, and if all else fails uninstall everything and do it the right way from the start.

The download page at lichproject.com has been updated with a new Ruby installer.. which is actually just the oldest ruby installer repackaged to include the ruby-gnome2 files with the hard-coded paths removed, rearranged to use the correct GTK files instead of some that might already be on your system, correct file associations, and a bunch of unneeded files removed. I've removed Lich v3 from the download page, since almost all the problems in Lich v4 were from Ruby 1.9.1, which I'm giving up on for a while. The major change in v4 is the way GTK is used. I believe the only script that broke because of this was ultrawaggle, which has been removed and rewritten.. twice. There are now a few scripts using GTK that will only work on v4, and the remaining GTK scripts written for v3 should still work on v4.

So.. basically.. Lich v4 should now be easier to install, work better than, and be as fast or faster than v3.

It should be noted that any SpiffyXXX script will work with Lich v3 and v4. In v3 you'll get the text-configuration mode and in v4 you'll get the GUI if you have GTk installed.

I was trying to install Lich v4 today on Vista. I downloaded and installed ruby from http://lichproject.com/wiki/Download and then extracted Lich, but when I double clicked on lich.rbw nothing happened. What am I doing wrong?

Tried starting over with no luck, any ideas?

Does anyone know why autosort highlights everything in my containers?

Tillmen got it working for me.

Run CMD and direct it to the directory lich.rbw in is, then type

Code:

---

ruby lich.rbw

---

It should create two folders, data and temp. Also the GUI should popup.
