That's too many "should"s ;) But seriously, it's a big no-no for Unix scripts to modify files by default, at least it is very unexpected. This should be done only when given a -i option (for in-place), with optional creation of a backup-file. The default operation should create to a different file. In the regular designer-programmer work flow, I would get an icon from the designer, from which I build an icon for release using that script. This would never modify the original icon (which hopefully is checked in to some version control system). - Bert - _______________________________________________ Sugar mailing list Sugar@lists.laptop.org http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/sugar
