Hi folks,
I'm (probably) in the minority here, but I use Blackbox 0.65 in
a Cygwin environment [1]. It's Grrrrrrrrrrreat!
When I try to load any style that has a background like
"bsetbg -f ~/.blackbox/backgrounds/a.jpg", I get a message
"~/.blackbox/backgrounds/a.jpg does not exist".
If set the -x flag in the bsetbg script to see what's happening,
I see that the [ -f "$file" ] test at line 235 does *not* expand
the ~ to /home/rudy, which is why the test fails.
If, however, I run "bsetbg -f ~/.blackbox/backgrounds/a.jpg" from
the command prompt (bash), the background sets just fine.
I also tried changing the "/bin/sh" to "/bin/bash" in bsetbg and
unquoting the "$file" to get tilde expansion, but it still doesn't
work.
Any ideas before I start hacking around the "bexec()" subroutine?
Cheers!
rudy
