2011-09-13 Thread Alan Teeder

[Flightgear-devel] Mac 2.4 binary crashes

[Flightgear-devel] NASAL permissions

2011-09-13 Thread Adam Dershowitz, Ph.D., P.E.
I seem to have run into a problem with NASAL permissions. I have a script that is giving me permission errors when it runs. The scrip is in data/Nasal. It contains this line: var file=io.open("data/latlong.csv",mode="r"); and gives this error: Nasal runtime error: io.open(): op
