The New DSL 2024 has been reborn as a compact Linux distribution tailored for low-spec x86 computers. It packs a lot of applications into a small package. All the applications are chosen for their functionality, small size, and low dependencies. DSL 2024 also has many text-based applications that make it handy to use in a term window or TTY.
DSL 2024 currently only ships with two window managers: Fluxbox and JWM. Both are lightweight, fairly intuitive, and easy to use.
DSL has three X-based web browsers:
BadWolf (light, security-oriented, fully HTML5 compatible)
Dillo (super-light GUI browser)
Links2 (text and light GUI browser)
For office applications, DSL has:
AbiWord word processor
Gnumeric spreadsheets
Sylpheed email client
Zathura PDF viewer
For multimedia applications:
MPV (video and audio)
XMMS (a lightweight audio player)
Other applications:
mtPaint (graphics editing)
gFTP (FTP, SFTP, and SCP)
Leafpad (quick editing)
zzzFM (file manager lifted straight out of antiX)
There are three GUI-based games picked because they are fun and relatively light.
DSL 2024 is also loaded up with a whole bunch of handy term-based applications:
Ranger file manager
VisiData a powerful CSV and spreadsheet tool
FZF fuzzy finder
Tmux terminal multiplexer
Mutt email client
Cmus music player
CDW CD burner
Htop, an interactive process viewer
SurfRaw (with wrapper) to search from the term
Weather App
MPV video/audio player with wrapper
Vim and Nano for editing
Five term-based games
Two term-compatible web browsers: W3M and Links2
...and much more
In addition to the changes in Alpha 2, I have made the following adjustments:
Added "Set Date and Time" widget to Control Center.
Incorporated DSL's Live USB making script into Control Center.
Added IP into Conky.
Incorporated DSL-specific scripts into the automatic menuing system and integrated the system menu into the default menu in JWM and Fluxbox.
Added the firmware-misc-nonfree package—this should significantly enhance DSL's hardware support.
Updated the included FAQs with useful information.
Made available a low-compression build that should perform better in virtual machines.
