[TuxKart-devel] Location sysem

[Ricardo C. <ri...@ae...>]

Hey there,

 I noticed that TuxKart doesn't make a very smart checking where it is placed. 
Just looks at local dir, up dir and system chunk (/usr).
 Smarter location checking would be:
- asking proc for the binary directory;
- look at the way the binary was executed - won't be able to get the location 
for symlinks.

 An implementation of the last one is here:

 By the way, using chdir() is kinda of ugly. What about having a global 
string?

 Best fix, however, would be to make Linux file manager to execute binaries 
from their own dir.

Cheers,
 Ricardo

indeed they reject it.  Their inventive gifts are boundless.  They demand
devotion and obedience.  And a sense of humor.  I happily gave all of this.
I was lucky to be chosen and clever enough to understand them.
