==>Subject: where's path of 2 panels stored ? This problem should have been solved long ago. You've got 20 mc/s in several VT's of 4 desktops. When you need to access a mc which is pointed to one of your 8 current projects, you need to know which of the 20 mc/s points to the relevant directory.
Now: lsof | grep mc | grep dog will give you the pid of the mc which has your project with file name *dog*, curently [active 1 of 2] in a mc. And pstree -p | grep <the pidAbove> will confirm. And pstree -p will give a graphical info which allows to deduce which VT is pointing to *dog*. But !! lsof only shows the 1 of 2 mc panels which is currently pointing to *dog*. Which is not good enough. You need to know where both panels are ponting. So where is the mc info kept, for the dirs of the 2 panels ? Since "dog" isn't in the .mc dir, it's likely to be a global variable, of the particular pid ? Is the code for each running mc common/re-entrant, with each one keeping its own data separate ? ============= The usefulness of multiple mc/s is substantially reduced if you can't know which one is where at all times. Surely someone else wants to solve this problem too ? == Chris Glur.
