Try using the entire path to the file i.e. /home/user/filename? -----Original Message----- From: Thomas Wildeman [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, January 16, 2002 12:32 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [newbie] Terminal syntax??? to a floppy directly from wordstar?
Hello, I couldn't find a terminal icon in starword. But i can find one on the tool bar, so I used it to type in: /mnt/floppy/Note to Luke1.doc Yet I got an error saying the directory or file doesn't exist. What did I do incorrectly? i can see clearly using the file browser that it is existing. Btw is there a direct way of accessing this terminal in starword?
