I'll note that changing the group ownership of a file is a privileged operation. The "newgrp" command runs privileged in order to change your session group, and it confirms that the group you're changing to is one you're allowed to change to.You might be interested in the unix command newgrp, that can change the group id of your session such that new files greated should have this group. The normal behavior for any program is to create files with the group of the current session. It would of course be possible for grc to have such an option but it seems like a very niche request. /Elof
Now way in hades would it be a good idea for GRC to run privileged so that it could change file ownerships.
This class of question has ZERO to do with GRC and Gnu Radio, and MUCH more to do with "how to live and be a dev
on Linux".
