Hi, There is a bug with the savedir option, when specified in the configuration file. Environment variables are not replaced by their values. See : https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/tuxpaint/+bug/195868 I did a patch to fix this on Linux, but the function used is not available for other plateforms. Does someone know how to do this on Windows and MacOS? At least, I think that the patch for Linux should be merged to fix the issue for this plateform. http://launchpadlibrarian.net/12727159/10_expand_user_home.dpatch Cheer, Francis -- Francis Giraldeau, Ing jr.

Hi, Is there any solution that have been found to expand environment variables from "savedir" options when defined in the config file for other platform than Linux? I saw that replace_tilde does the job for $HOME, but how do they do to change the path on other platform (since on Windows, $HOME is not defined) Have a nice day, Francis Bill Kendrick a écrit : > On Thu, May 29, 2008 at 07:56:35AM -0400, Francis Giraldeau wrote: > >> Hi, >> >> There is a bug with the savedir option, when specified in the >> configuration file.

And only for the current user. (i.e., you can't do "~someotheruser/tuxpaint/" like you can in a shell) I'm reminded of the 'wordexp()' patch, which I suppose I should apply, just to get the ball rolling for Linux. What do Windows programmers use? And Mac? Does wordexp() work on Mac? -bill! |

I've implemented this on Linux. I need to also implement it for printcommand and altprintcommand, I think. Just throwing the string at wordexp() doesn't cut it, though... I need to parse it on a per-arg-basis (i.e., split it based on whitespace, wordexp() each word, and wrap it back together). Or am I overthinking this? -- -bill!

So right now the wordexp() stuff is wrapped in "#ifdef __linux__". I suppose we should make that something like "#if defined(__linux__) || defined(__APPLE__)", then? (Would we want any kind of "MAC_OS_X_VERSION_10_4" or "__APPLE_10_4_x__" tests, too?) Martin, if you've got a sec, can you give it a whirl? (Feel free to commit to CVS if it seems to work ;) ) Delegatin, -- -bill! "Tux Paint" - free children's drawing software for Windows / Mac OS X / Linux! Download it today! http://www.tuxpaint.org/ |
