It looks like this: export FVWMHOME=/opt/public/src/fvwm/2.4.0 export FVWMHOME=/opt/public/src/fvwm/2.2.5 export FVWMHOME=/opt/public/src/fvwm/2.4.13 export FVWMHOME=/opt/public/src/fvwm/2.5.7 export PATH=$PATH:$FVWMHOME exec $FVWMHOME/fvwm2 "$@" > >>>>> "DE" == Dan Espen <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> writes: > > DE> Jake Colman <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> writes: > >> > >> So by simply pointing at the version to be executed, it will find any > >> subordinate files that it needs?
