We aren't selling any product, and we know the documentation is lacking. But you are making mistakes following the instructions and asking dabo-users to sort it all out for you. Nobody there has the time to hold your hand through every single step of the way. You are asking, on the dabo-users list, linux-specific and python-specific questions that show that you haven't even taken the time to spend an hour learning the basics of those technologies. You seem to feel entitled to our time. Perhaps Dabo, Python, and Linux just aren't the right fit for you. You may have all your money back. > And not to forget: "Visual FoxPro has a vibrant, vocal, energetic > community that knows how to have a good time.

Quoting it here has no relevance, as several people on dabo-users have tried to help you but you keep demanding to be spoon-fed. You are not an active member of our vibrant community, but more like a troll. I don't understand what you want from us. To install Dabo using Subversion on Linux: cd /home/theisen mkdir projects cd projects svn checkout http://svn.dabodev.com/dabo/trunk dabo cd /usr/lib/python25/site-packages ## note the space after 'cd' echo "/home/theisen/projects/dabo" > dabo.pth -- or -- svn checkout http://svn.dabodev.com/dabo/trunk dabo cd dabo sudo python setup.py install From your messages on dabo-users, you've managed to install dabo, because you can import it with no trouble. But then you tried to issue linux shell commands from the python interpreter, which shows you've spent zero time learning anything about python, and have next to zero clue about the relationship between an operating system, a programming language, and a library. But again, this is noise, and on the wrong list. I'm not going to keep replying to this thread, no matter how ludicrous the claims about Dabo or its community become.
