Hey guys. I wanted to ask that can we use the script of POL in POM. If we can how do we use it.
It would be helpful if anyone provided tuto or manual about it.
:D
Thanks for any help

hi mac_tester,
Welcome here !

it depends on the script.
for the moment, every scripts which work fine are in the script' section, but in theory, all POL'scripts are oaky since the 3.5 version of POL.

Tinou can more explain than me, ;-)

have a good evening ;-)

The script are exactly the same except the following restrictions :

- To be compatible, a script should use $REPERTOIRE instead of $HOME/.PlayOnLinux
- The commands like "mkdir directory -p" must be replaced by "mkdir -p directory"
- OpenGL apps causes problems
- The script must be written in V3 commands (Starting by POL_SetupWindow). V2 commands can't be used (like message, question, creer_prefixe, ect...)

I hope I answered your questions

Thanks Tinou. I understood most of it. But what with the V3 and V2 commands. If you could explain. Anyways I will be working on using POL scripts for POM. Thanks ;)

And by the way. I compared the the available scripts of POM with POL and found that both are exactly same.....
Anyways see ya all

Yes ! The database is the same

What about the POL plugins in POM. Can we use them

Nope ;)

Next question is, How can I use the scripts? get:xxx doesnt work on mac. IDK why. I can download the script. but, where do I put it?

Just use latest stable PoM release and it's Install menu, all compatible scripts are listed in there, just select one and installation will start.
