Shouldn't that be /usr/bin or something like that? 09:04:10 usually not 09:04:21 in msys you invoke configure with --prefix=/mingw 09:04:32 ah k 09:04:34 that makes sense 09:04:39 What's the syntax of the file like? 09:04:40 and msys brings its own /usr/bin if i remember correctly 09:04:42 text file? 09:04:44 ah 09:04:45 yes 09:05:11 Could you pastebin a sample file for me? 09:05:17 I haven't downloaded your thingy 09:05:20 yes, hang on a second.. 09:05:27 Or, what's the filename, fstab? 09:05:33 yeah 09:05:43 no extention 09:05:58 (MSYS is installed on this machine) 09:06:19 My one here is just two lines: 09:06:19 c:/programs/cbuilderx/mingw /mingw 09:06:21 its in /etc/fstab 09:06:21 c:/programs/mingw /mingw 09:06:26 I found it :D 09:06:40 yep 09:06:47 What's yours like, just that sort of thingy? 09:07:01 So your problem is that it's changing them to \? 09:07:12 You need to use a TextReplace of \ to / 09:07:20 no, i think i got that right, only the driveletter is not replaced properly 09:07:28 lowercase? 09:07:42 Could you please pastebin your fstab file and your code? 09:08:56 ChrisMorgan: yes, but you have to wait a second, i'm not at home and i have to download the current dev files from my host 09:08:57 That way I can look at it for you :-) 09:10:07 OK, if you're happy doing that then thanks :-) 09:10:35 'Cos I can't at the moment... downloads go in the morning, otherwise we'd go over our monthly allowance too early 09:10:57 4GB 12am-12pm, 2GB normal... and once the 2GB is gone, you lose the off-peak stuff 09:11:08 no problem 09:13:14 Doing our Bible readings now, be back here soon 09:13:26 *** ChrisMorgan is now known as ChrisM|ReadBible 09:14:09 http://pastebin.com/d5e986f6d 09:14:23 and default fstab: 09:14:27 http://pastebin.com/d69182923 09:16:43 *** sar3th is now known as sar3th|afk 09:29:09 *** purple has quit ("Only two things are definite, Death and Format C:\") 10:15:08 *** ChrisM|ReadBible is now known as ChrisMorgan 10:15:10 bak 10:19:50 sar3th|afk: your problem is that it'll set it once, and then it'll never work again, as after the first time it'll be trying to replace MINGWDIR and HOMEDIR instead of X:/PortableApps/MinGWPortable/whatever 10:20:39 So what you need to do is write the path to the Settings.ini file (LastMinGWDirectory and LastHomeDirectory) and then find and replace /them/ 10:20:53 Look at how other launchers do it... um... which launchers... 10:22:50 CoolPlayer+ 10:24:06 thx 10:24:19 I think WinWGet's launcher does it, as well as XChat, VLC, and winmerge 10:24:43 I do it in a few of my launchers, just they get fuddled in my head :P 10:25:03 Most launchers will do it for the drive letter. Some will do it for full paths. 10:25:26 bbl 10:25:29 All apps that store MRU lists or *ever* use absolute paths should have it done 10:25:36 bye TaffinFoxcroft 10:25:41 .def bbl 10:25:41 ;-) 10:25:42 ChrisMorgan: bbl is "Be Back Later", or "bubble" to ChrisMorgan ;-) 10:29:24 *** purple (n=purple@80.93.231.198) has joined #portableapps 10:33:10 how is it you all get the pabot talking so much? 10:35:50 .def ChrisMorgan 10:35:52 ChrisMorgan: ChrisMorgan is a PortableApps.com Developer, and does BPBible, Inkscape, gVim, subcommander, and more 10:36:08 .def #portableapps 10:36:09 ChrisMorgan: #portableapps is for discussion of PortableApps.com - stop going off topic, or go to #portableapps-ot ;-) 10:36:23 .def squiggle 10:36:24 ChrisMorgan: I have no idea who or what squiggle is. 10:36:29 .def Horusofoz 10:36:31 ChrisMorgan: I have no idea who or what Horusofoz is. 10:36:36 see? 10:37:16 how do you set the definition? 10:38:08 pabot: help def 10:38:09 ChrisMorgan: .def is|are|has|was|runs|thinks|knows|may|wants - Heralds people as the enter and can recall definitions with .def . Definitions compound 10:38:09 e.g. .def pabot is cool! 10:38:32 .def horusofoz 10:38:33 Horusofoz: I have no idea who or what horusofoz is. 10:38:37 .def Horusofoz is something or other... but you can only change his def outside #portableapps - try PM 10:38:38 .def manipulation is only allowed in #rmccue 10:38:54 Actually it's just anywhere other than #portableapps* 10:38:58 So PM works 10:39:05 *** sar3th|afk is now known as sar3th 10:39:19 Horusofoz: please change your .defs only in #rmccue 10:39:36 sar3th: ok, got what I said? If not, look back a bit 10:39:39 how to get there 10:39:41 ChrisMorgan: please only suggest changing in #rmccue 10:39:48 ChrisMorgan: reading at the moment 10:39:54 Horusofoz: /join #rmccue 10:40:17 cheers 10:40:26 PM works just as well. 10:40:47 ChrisMorgan: isn't that what my lines 199-209 do? 10:41:07 No - I'll take the first 10:41:14 .def Horusofoz 10:41:15 Horusofoz: Horusofoz is an Ubernoob who will probably ask a lot of noobish questions. 10:41:30 It only replaces the string "MINGWDIR" with X:\path. 10:41:46 Then next time I come to it and the file has X:\path in - not a "MINGWDIR" around to replace! 10:41:47 see? 10:42:10 yes..then line 188 will head over to line 199 10:42:21 at least that's what i wanted it to do 10:42:30 ah yeah, didn't notice that. 10:43:02 "Fehler korrigieren"? 10:43:14 german for 'correct mistake' :-[ 10:43:25 :-( 10:43:53 You really should make it always put in the correct path, so that: 10:43:54 i have forgotten to change it to english 10:44:28 who scripted the pabot responses? 10:44:41 Horusofoz: talk to pabot about it: 10:44:45 pabot: help? 10:44:47 ChrisMorgan: Hi, I'm a bot. Say ".commands" to me in private for a list of my commands, or see http://inamidst.com/phenny/ for more general details. My owner is rmccue. 10:45:05 I install to X:\abc. It sets the path to X:/abc. I move it to P:\xyz. All it does is change the stored thing to "P:/abc" which is not where it is any more 10:45:43 That's why storing the last paths is a more accurate way of doing it whereever it's not just a drive letter you're using but a reference to the installation directory 10:45:44 ah k..i see your point 10:45:55 You could look at how BPBible does 10:45:56 it 10:46:04 BPBible does *three* such things! 10:46:13 And may do more once SwordBible Portable paths are sorted out properly 10:47:00 okay, i'll look at bpb's source as soon as possible then :) 10:47:24 BPBible's codebase is also a bit old. I need to update it to use things like the new ReadINIStrWithDefault macro 10:47:32 ChrisMorgan: SwordBible portable stores its modules in Data, doesn't it? 10:47:37 No. 10:47:49 They've got to go in App\SwordBible I believe 10:47:58 \mods.d and \modules then of course 10:48:07 they go in Data for me. 10:48:18 BPBible Portable was the first launcher for PortableApps.com I did, and the most complex I've done. 10:48:23 huh? 10:48:30 Does your copy also do the ODBC stuff then? 10:48:43 my copy is DT2, and I haven 10:48:49 't checked that yet 10:49:28 I downloaded DT2, definitely DT2, but it doesn't do any of that stuff. The launcher purely shows the (incorrect) splash screen (in the wrong way), sets the outpath and launches it. 10:49:38 It doesn't use the Data directory *at all* 10:50:27 btw TaffinFoxcroft I don't like the way you were describing my talk about it... though I have gone too far... I think it would have helped if jc1 actually tried to fix the issues :-( 10:50:36 * TaffinFoxcroft does tree of Data 10:51:13 http://pastebin.com/d3ed226ab 10:51:21 If he hadn't done it I would have done it by now I think. But now PortableApps.com developer ethics (:s) are keeping me from just making a proper launcher for him :-( 10:52:07 TaffinFoxcroft: "C:."? 10:52:31
