Is that per-user, or per-system? Debian has a per-system "alternatives" system which would allow the admin to select whether /usr/bin/pcb is the GTK+ version or the Lesstif version, by changing symlinks. The package maintainer specifies priorities which set the default if multiple options are installed. If you have per-user then I guess you wrote a script and read something out of $HOME. It might be useful to have this on Debian too. Can you point me at the code, if this is indeed what you have implemented? thanks Hamish -- Hamish Moffatt VK3SB <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> _______________________________________________ geda-dev mailing list [email protected] http://www.seul.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/geda-dev
