Strange, assuming you may have set the environment variable "XUSERFILESEARCHPATH" would explain that. Have you set it? If so, What value?
Hallo Markus, we have indeed (if I remember correctly this is required for nedit and possibly some other motif programs). Running 'echo $XUSERFILESEARCHPATH | tr : \\\n' yields: /usr/local/X11R6/lib/X11/app-defaults/%N%C /usr/local/X11R6/lib/X11/app-defaults/%N /etc/X11/app-defaults/%N%C /etc/X11/app-defaults/%N /usr/X11R6/share/X11/app-defaults/%N%C /usr/X11R6/share/X11/app-defaults/%N
Well, I can run GNU gv 3.7.1 without problems having no ~/.gv at all.
I just tried to unset XUSERFILESEARCHPATH and then I can do that too. Regards Peter Breitenlohner <p...@mppmu.mpg.de>
