Hi mentors, I'm putting my thoughts together. I think what I'm trying to ask is how to make it work "manually"?
Suppose I do the following: Step 1: binary gcc myapp.c -o myapp sudo cp myapp /usr/games/ Step 2: prepare translations: mkdir -p /usr/share/locale/en/LC_MESSAGES xgettext -k_ --flag=_:1:pass-c-format -d myapp -s -o myapp.pot myapp.c msginit -l en_US -o en_US-myapp.po -i myapp.pot msgfmt -c -v -o en_US-myapp.mo en_US-myapp.po sudo cp en_US-myapp.mo /usr/share/locale/en/LC_MESSAGES/myapp.mo Step 3: scores: mkdir -p /var/games/myapp/ cp myapp.scores /var/games/myapp/ Then I probably need to get some permissions right. Here is the problem. I did: For the binary: chown root:games /usr/games/myapp For the score directory and file: chown root:games /var/games/myapp chown root:games /var/games/myapp/myapp chmod g+w /var/games/myapp chmod g+w /var/games/myapp/myapp I suppose that is all I have to do. But myapp still tells me "permission denied". Holding my breath! Beco. -- Dr Beco A.I. researcher "Sometimes the heart sees what is invisible to the eye." (H.
