nvm i got it withj your last post, what was with the other commands you wanted me to put in?

THANK YOU by the way!

Well on your last post I did it and the program ran, but it looks like it isn't working, but i posted my errors on my last post, didnt want to edit it incase you wouldnt see this.

I am pretty sure I downloaded it wrong, thats my main thing with linux I don't know how to extract the file or place it into a correct directory? maybe thats what i did wrong for your commands to not be working. Possibly we skipped the install requirement of GTK 2. (?) because the app run just doesnt work.

beast@Beast:~$ ~/autotyper
Process 31312 about to fork a child.
Created child process 31315.
xvkbd -text "2
\r"
Warning: Cannot convert string "-*-lucidatypewriter-bold-r-*-*-12-*-*-*-*-*-iso8859-1" to type FontStruct
xvkbd: Mode_switch not available as a modifier
xvkbd: although ISO_Level3_Shift is used instead, AltGr may not work correctly
Dupe detected.
Process 31315 about to fork a child.
Created child process 31318.
Cannot open file.
Cannot open file.

what i got when i opened the autotyper with ~/autotyper then tried using it.

what is GTS+ 2.x? are you talking about gtk? I am not an expert of this software .. where did you get that info? post link or quote the text.

I do not know why is not working, but you need to give us all the info you can about this program.

^ in the requirements you helped me get the xvkbd software. (check)
then we got the actual app I needed (but it looks like we skipped the other requirement)
its the GTS right under the requirements section, it says its required but no link to a download path. thats probably what I am missing and will try searching for it.

the link says GTK, not GTS!

You will also need GTK+ 2.x. Once you have those two requirements, you can run the auto typer. It will work in any X program, and can be used as an alternative to the Windows Runescape Auto Typer. Future updates will be located here.

check the version that you are using , but still there is no why to be sure that this is the error.

Code:

dpkg -l | grep libgtk

probably version 3 is not recognized by the program... have you tried contacting/emailing the developer?

thats what I got ^

and haven't contacted them yet, just wanna see if I can get it working before I have to waste more peoples time like yours =[

edit: another problem that could be wrong is just how I downloaded it. all i did was download it and opened the folder and dragged it to my desktop, could have done something wrong there?

i will take a look at the source code of "autotyper.c" and see if by changing some values does the trick. BTW they did not put any comments, in the code , it will take some time to figure it out . I'll let you know tonight if I find something....

**Illusionistik** · March 2nd, 2013

yeah I am in no rush I will be on for a bit longer also so if you need me to do anything post away.

Look at my earlier post when I pasted what I got from my terminal with your command " tar xvzf ~/Downloads/autotyper-x86.tar.gz "

beast@Beast:~$ tar xvzf ~/Downloads/autotyper-x86.tar.gz

tar (child): /home/beast/Downloads/autotyper-x86.tar.gz: Cannot open: No such file or directory
tar (child): Error is not recoverable: exiting now
tar: Child returned status 2
tar: Error is not recoverable: exiting now

I am pretty sure that is where the error may lie, just me downloading the file incorrectily or just not putting it in the correct directory?
