Tip

If anything (such as xbasic) ever crashes try for example:

xbasic 2> error.txt

This will create a text file containing the error messages which is a damn site easier than copying the text by hand

I also had this problem of missing files, but used my common sense and installed the files from the Pico.zip I was going to say something but I thought it would have been too obvious

It makes me wonder why people who have no-clue about gnu/linux (or io redirects speciffically) Or people are unable to solve simple problems by READING error messages, why they would want to run shell apps in the first place.

Thanks for the tip I see this isn't the place for trying to learn. Sorry for getting involved. I hope the other guys with XLs can be helpful. Take care.

Nagh just having a rant. I think I was having an off day ;)

Boot

Sorry if this is a noob question, but I see every time I load basic it goes into the sun & moon program. Is there a way to make it go to command line or exit the sun & moon?

Thanks

Nevermind, I have solved this by editing the xbasic-demo file:

#!/bin/sh

# Wrapper script for X11-Basic (c) Markus Hoffmann 2008
# Change these values if you like

#first do some settings like the PWD, HOME and PATH
cd /mnt/sdcard

export PATH=$PATH:/mnt/sdcard/bin
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/mnt/sdcard/lib

export HOME=/mnt/sdcard/

# now start the console application

./TTconsole/TTconsole --login /mnt/sdcard/bin/xbasic /mnt/sdcard/X11-Basic/PROGRAM PATH HERE

However, still wondering best way to load from console. Nevermind again, I see I can load xbasic and do it from there. --Compy 00:10, 31 January 2008 (CET)


When I load XBasic it checks to see if those files exist. Two of the five have errors. /etc/terminfo/terminfo: Operation not permitted

/usr/share/terminfo/terminfo: Operation not permitted --Compy 00:49, 31 January 2008 (CET)
