weird shell problem ...

Hi All,

I’m using an executable shell script in order to mount a volume of a
Win95 box.

ls

… .lastlogin .photon Mail mW95D ← located at /root
… .ph .profile mServer

When I open a terminal (working dir is /root) and type in ‘mW95D’
… the shell executes a tar archive of Python 2.0b2 located at
the filesystem root (’/’) =:-/

mW95D

/BeOpen-Python-2_0b2.tar.gz[9]: syntax error: )' unexpected ../mW95D[4]: 0:43:default:-3:-3:0: not found ../mW95D[5]: syntax error: (’ unexpected

Here is the contents of mW95D:

cat mW95D

fs-cifs //Armin:Armin:/D /W95D user none &

/** PhEDIT attribute block
0:43:default:-3:-3:0
** PhEDIT attribute block ends (-0000094)**/

I don’t know what the cat command has to do with PhEDIT … ???
Then I cut/paste and execute the contents of mW95D directly and
all is working :slight_smile:)

fs-cifs -v //Armin:Armin:/D /W95D user none

fs-cifs: starting…
fs-cifs: mount: Armin:/D → /W95D by user [0]
fs-cifs: new server
fs-cifs: establishing connection to Armin:Armin
fs-cifs: smb connection successful
fs-cifs: logging user on Armin
fs-cifs: logon successful. uid [0] maps to [0]
fs-cifs: mounting Armin:/D

What’s the problem ???

Regards

Armin

This portion of your problem is a known bug and we have a problem
report filled out for it. This should be fixed in the next
patch or update.

Hi Armin,

This attribute block is created by PhEdit, to remove this feature
select “Preferences” and unselect “Save and Load Styled Text”.
The text can also be removed using vi or something else.

This is used as a information block for Ped, so it knows how you
styled the document (colors, fonts, etc). From reading Mike’s posting,
it looks like this is going to be removed or changed.

Erick.

Unfortunately … the ‘Styled Text’ isn’t visible if you use vi or vim
=:-/.

Ped creates BIG problems if you edit shell scripts or make files … so
for this time
I have removed it from my disk volume :slight_smile:)

You should post a BIG warning to ALL news groups not to use Ped …
