Hello
I am trying to the
new modal forms functionality going on my Mac, using the latest release of PNET
(not the cvs daily stuff though).
I have Mac OSX
10.2.8 with XFree86 4.3.0
I have OrouborsX
installed also (which is probably irrelevant).
Now, a few months
ago with a previous release of Portable.NET, I had managed to get the forms
business to work with X. Now, after updating to the latest Pnet release, I
am repeatedly cursed by:
a)my own ignorance
of how to get PNET to recognise that X is installed (unless I am misundertanding
the error message)
b)everytime I try to
run one of the samples, I see the error message saying "X is not installed, or
cannot be found on the path" or words to that effect.
c)my own *nix based
ignorance overall, in particular how to set the path to point to the relevant X
folders
So far, I
have:
1) In the usual
Terminal-tcsh console, I messed about setting the path to include /usr/X11R6/bin
but cannot seem to manage this (I am trying set path="$path /usr/X11R6/bin", but
this doesn't seem to work, in fact, I then loose the ability to use the "ls"
command)
2) Launched X and
then used XDarwin to view the path - in XDarwin, the path includes
/usr/X11R/bin. Having seen that the path is then set, I have returned to
the PNETLIB folder in the XDarwin window, and tried ./configure again - this
then reports that 'checking for X...(cached) no".
One way or the
other, I am failing somewhere. Can anybody help me
please?
Thanks
