About OTBinupdate:
This is a script I wrote (actually, it's a derrivative from my OTupdate script) to download the latest precompiled OpenTracker and OpenDeskbar sources from OpenTracker site and install them (it even restarts the Tracker and the Deskbar for you!).

This is a script I wrote (actually, it's a derrivative from my OTupdate script) to download the latest precompiled OpenTracker and OpenDeskbar sources from OpenTracker site and install them (it even restarts the Tracker and the Deskbar for you!).

For this script to work, you much have a wget client (with a filename of "wget" (no quotes)) in your path. I have found that the one at:

http://www.bebits.com/app/798

works on x86 systems. A PPC version is also available. The script assumes that the OpenTracker and OpenDeskbar package will be placed in /boot/home/OpenTracker before extraction, however this is changable by editing the OTDIR variable in the script. To run this script, just click on it in the Be menu or go to a Terminal and type:

OTBinupdate

or double-click on the script in /boot/home/config/bin

I have done my best to make this script error-free and fault tolerant, but if you find any bugs in it, please e-mail me at bebitsemail@usa.net

Latest Version
   
Details about this version:
A few bugfixes:

The OpenTracker team changed its filenaming conventions, so the stable builds didn't work anymore. Fixed.

A bug where if the stable download failed, the script would still restart the Tracker and the Deskbar before exiting. Fixed.

Removed some clear statements.
