Thor GUI Alpha v0.4.0 is here! The main focus with this release was to make Thor GUI more user-friendly, and that meant removing dotnet as a prerequisite. Yep, you don't need dotnet to run Thor GUI any more!
Changes:
- A self-contained, single file build of Thor is bundled in this release. This means you don't need dotnet to run Thor (and therefore Thor GUI) now. The binary Thor builds were built from Thor's source code with these commands: "dotnet publish -r linux-x64 -p:PublishSingleFile=true -p:DebugType=embedded --self-contained -o /output/directory" and "dotnet publish -r linux-arm64 -p:PublishSingleFile=true -p:DebugType=embedded --self-contained -o /output/directory". These two binaries are located in the "Thor" folder of the attached file. It will work on x64 and arm64 computers running Linux, currently.
- Dragging and dropping Odin Archives is now supported. Just open a file manager, drag the file you want over the corresponding Odin Archive Entry, and drop it. This adds a new prerequisite, tkinterdnd2.
pip install tkinterdnd2-universalThanks to Not_Rich@XDA for this feature request. - Apparently, on certain distros or configurations, there would be a "Failed to open the device for RW: Permission denied (13)" error when connecting a device from Thor GUI even though connecting with Thor itself worked fine. Having Thor GUI run Thor with sudo solved this issue, so there is now a setting to run Thor with sudo. Thanks to DokiDokiYandere@XDA for reporting this and helping find a fix.
- Removed the ugly border around the ScrolledText widget in the Log tab. Eventually the scrollbar will also have to be changed.
Although allowing Thor GUI settings to transfer over to later versions was supposed to work in the last release, it won't. However, transferring settings from this release to newer ones should work.
