If you wish to execute a programme or application, you must invoke it by typing a ./ a dot and a slash together right up against the file name of the executable, lets say the file name was xcdroast well, one would type ./xcdroast to get it to run, this is for security purposes because you should not put . in your path or else someone could bust into your unix system. If you want, you can add a certain directory to your path like /bin or /sbin .
If you wish to know what to type to put some directory in your path just ask and i will look it up real quick on my system. hope this helps On Tuesday 22 January 2002 10:57 pm, so spoke Pierre Fortin : > On Tue, 22 Jan 2002 20:45:47 -0500 > > Aleksey <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > But now I'm up against the wall, because this is a compiled executable. > > ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
