You have a shell function "mc", so when you run "mc" without full path, the function is run. That function calls the real binary "mc" with the "-P" argument. The "mc" function is now obsolete. Most likely you had an old version of mc and didn't uninstall it properly. Remove files /etc/profile/mc.sh and /etc/profile/mc.csh - the "mc" function is defined there. > I just get the latest CVS over cvs command and I got these error message when > I try to start the mc: > > -P: missing argument > bash: cd: GNU Midnight Commander 4.6.0-pre1b: No such file or directory > > Is he trying to change into a directory called like the mc's name? Yes. The "mc" function was broken by design - it assumed that mc will always print the last working directory on exit. This was impossible to guarantee - mc could be killed by another process. The "mc" function was removed for security reasons, so I'm not going to make mc compatible with the old script. -- Regards, Pavel Roskin _______________________________________________ Mc-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/mc-devel
