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.

Yes, I wrote that about 5 years ago, and stand by it. 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.
