Could be. Or might be a path in ~/.xastir/conf/xastir.cnf
OK, I think I have more to offer here. I did a little looking in the
code. In "color.c" there is a line which reads:
fprint(stderr, "Error! can not find color file: %s\n",
get_data_base_dir(temp));
This was the error to which I referred in my original post, which read:
Error! can not find color file /xastir/config/xastir.rgb
That tells me that it is looking for a directory named xastir in the
root for the hard drive. There is no such directory. It should be
reading either /sw/share/xastir/config/xastir.rgb OR ~/.xastir/config/
xastir.rgb (does not exist on my system, but would make sense). In
any case, for some reason the get_data_base_dir() function has the
wrong path. I haven't traced this back (yet) but I am certain it is
part of the problem.
