Hi Igor2 and all, On my FC5 box the /usr/bin/geda binary has attributes like:
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 166480 Apr 2 2006 /usr/bin/geda Since I'm using "gEDA/gschem version 1.0.1-20070626" for production, I suspect the binary is a stale file left from a "make install" on some development version in the past. Other than the file date, running the binary gives no information or clues. As discussed on #geda maybe rename the binary to geda-project-manager as that seems to be the function the layout of the application advocates, and keep the name of your script (without the ".sh" suffix). BTW: Running with "/usr/bin/geda --version" would be a polite way to tell the user which (package) version the file belongs to. Kind regards, Bert Timmerman.
