Re: Customizable filesystem support for GNUstep
This was news to me. Thanks. I rarely use CSH, and this worked on the
two boxes I tried it on.
But you are correct, just tried this on Solaris and it fails. They
more-or-less apologize for this in the NOTES on the CSH man page.
Thanks,

With the above choice, problems can be imminent. If memory serves me right, Apple has put "root's" homedirectory into /var (/var/root), where /var is a symlink to /private/var; for me this contradicts the Unix-rule of always putting "root's" homedirectory in the 'root-filesystem', while /var is an 'official possible mountpoint' in that filesystem-layout. On the other hand I don't know if "/private" (NeXT's invention) is allowed to be a mounted partition or has to always reside in the root-filesystem. The intention of NeXT was to have all files, that make up the 'personality' of a machine in a separate filesystem (that has to be writeable!), thus '/private'; this also suggests, that it should be (allowed to be) mountable, thus a 'non-root filesystem'. But as /etc lives in /private, too (via symlink) ... So either '/LocalLibrary' (as on NEXTSTEP/OPENSTEP) or '/Local/Library' would not only be a less unusual, but really better choice in my eyes, to avoid namespace-conflicts. But since it is Apple's proprietary system, it's their choice, of course. For GNUstep, that shouldn't be mimicked. I do hope, we're not running into that danger :-).

Re: Customizable filesystem support for GNUstep
Thanks ... it looks like the maximum variable name is 30 chars
in tcsh 6.12, even if it is 256 in tcsh 6.14 (the one I had tested on
my system). :-(
So I changed all documentation variables to use 'DOC' instead of
'DOCUMENTATION'. That is also somewhat consistent with 'APPS'
used instead of 'APPLICATIONS' in the variable names. ;-)
For backwards compatibility, GNUSTEP_DOCUMENTATION, GNUSTEP_DOCUMENTATION_MAN
and GNUSTEP_DOCUMENTATION_INFO will still be defined inside gnustep-make
invocations. :-)
In the future (next 4 years), everyone will be asked to slowly move over to use
the new variable names GNUSTEP_[xxx_]DOC[_yyy]. Those variables are not
available
in gnustep-make v1 so no hurry to move over.
Anyway - let me know if it now works better! ;-)

So I finally upgraded GNUstep make and immediately hit a problem with
GNUstep.csh.
When sourcing that file I get an error
csh: Variable name too long.
Turning on verbose, it the problem is in filesystem.csh in the line
if ( ! ${?GNUSTEP_SYSTEM_DOCUMENTATION_MAN} ) then
May I suggest using shorter names for the environment variables
(e.g., suffix
DOC instead of DOCUMENTATION or omitting DOCUMENTATION altogether for
the
man and info paths).

P.S.: This happens for tcsh version 6.12 (which is installed by
default on
OS X 10.4 and also on Solaris 10).

Yup, that's the "hard and fast" part of my next layout. Or at least
part of it. Mapping all of the various GNUSTEP_${DOMAIN}_ADMIN_APPS
onto GNUSTEP_SYSTEM_ADMIN_APPS would suck worse than creating
directories which match an implied structure, IMO.
Of course it's a somewhat academic discussion as the idea is that
only the system distributors are providing administration apps, and
everyone else's apps are local apps even if they happen to provide
administrative functions ;-)

On NeXTstep and OPENSTEP there is support for both a /Net directory that is a location for network mount points (it is not a mount point itself), AND /Net* dirs for app/library paths in the default search path. These directories do not, by default, exist. Neither /Net nor /NetApps, /NetLibrary, etc. are created by the installer...but /NetApps and /NetLibrary are searched by the Workspace Manager for apps and services (/Net is not, ever: that would be a Certified Stupid Idea). By the way, there is only one "Admin" directory -- /NextAdmin. /LocalAdmin and /NetAdmin are not searched unless you specifically add them to the path with a dwrite, where /LocalApps and /NetApps are automagically supported (like /LocalLibrary and /NetLibrary). When you mount an NFS share, it (by default) mounts on /Net/hostname/path, creating the deep path if necessary. -- | Jeff Teunissen -=- Pres., Dusk To Dawn Computing -=- deek at d2dc.net | GPG: 1024D/9840105A 7102 808A 7733 C2F3 097B 161B 9222 DAB8 9840 105A | Core developer, The QuakeForge Project http://www.quakeforge.net/ | Specializing in Debian GNU/Linux http://www.d2dc.net/~deek/ ___ Discuss-gnustep mailing list Discuss-gnustep@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss-gnustep

OPENSTEP on the left, Mac on the right: /NextApps /Applications /NextAdmin (/Applications/Utilities, /System/Library/CoreServices, / Applications) /NextLibrary/System/Library /NextDeveloper /Developer /LocalApps /Applications /LocalAdmin /Applications /LocalLibrary /Library I think the User and Network domains had the same layout, but maybe OPENSTEP had Apps instead of Applications in each.

So in the Mac there's no such thing as a Local domain? I guess I can see why from a usability stand point. Also, if that's the OPENSTEP layout, Sergii's layout looks nothing like it. I guess you could do GNUApps, GNULibrary, etc since the Next prefix seems to go against GNUstep's name.

That's more a "Mac" layout than an OpenStep one, which might look more like: /SystemApps [instead of /NextApps] /SystemLibrary [instead of /NextLibrary] /LocalApps /LocalLibrary ~/Apps ~/Library Cheers, Graham.
