Hmm. D/L'd the patch, compiled it as received--no errors, and installed.
No joy.
Yeah, I know that there's no warranty, but I'm not sure I have the
patch set up correctly. I wrote a script containing the following lines:
#!/bin/sh
# Run Netscape with pipe patch
LD_PRELOAD=/usr/local/lib/libnspipepatch.so
/opt/netscape/netscape -no-about-splash
As far as I can tell from the depths of newbiedom, this sets the
LD_PRELOAD variable so that only Netscape knows about it. Am I off base
here, or what?
