The lockfile is the file you specify to the lockfile command. If you use an absolute path, that's the location. Otherwise, it's relative to the current working directory. Since you're changing directories within the script, you'll probably want to make sure you use an absolute path when specifying the lockfile. I'd put the lockfile in the same temporary directory you're using to create the documentation. - -- Charles Steinkuehler [EMAIL PROTECTED] -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.0 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFELHHGLywbqEHdNFwRAlrFAJ40Ruf5IIa1QorCD4oKO1IXokg2YwCfYcnl 23EsQeM1DlCM6I5CfIDPvbg= =oiB8 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by xPML, a groundbreaking scripting language that extends applications into web and mobile media.
