Dear all, I can confirm that Enricos installation runs (blazingly fast!) from a USB stick on a MAC without any elevated user rights whatsoever. I have run the complete test case suite (except the API) and they all work, see below. The USB installation (running from a not-so-fast USB2 stick) performs just as fast as my own installation in /opt on a SSD disk! WOW!
Enricos installation also come with some sugar that I would love to have in the official builds, the indication of the build revision, see below. When I build some days later than the SVN Update I get the current date (but a build from some days ago). Build revision would help when checking installers against eachother (BSF4ooRexx versus standalone for instance). Also I can confirm that rexx AND rxapi run as user „po“ in the USB build, in a normal installation rxapi run as "root". rxapi seems to start only once the rexx process launches (intended I guess) and I have to use kill to stop rxapi before ejecting. The first time after I had killed rxapi and reinstalled my own installation I had a glitch: Searching for test containers.Segmentation fault: 11 But redoing the command it worked and the entire test suite ran without problem, so not sure what happened. Maybe Enrico gets some idea? How should one stop running the USB build in the most unintrusive way? This is a leap forward!
