Code: Select all
#include <stdio.h>
main() {
int ch;
while((ch=getchar()) != EOF) {
if ( ch == 10 ) {
printf ("0a ");
continue;

printf ("%0x ", ch);

No hurry, what about Monday next week or so
...
Is it related to ask. What is the difference between Spot and Fido?
...
Latest woof seems to include Fido?...
Fido do what fido says he will do. Run as non rootYes, the official way to run non-root is fido
Latest wary will give you the choice to run it as root or as fido. This choice has to be made once and there is no way of return.
Cheers

If you're in spot, you can probably just type "exit" and be back in root. Check using "whoami"nooby wrote:Can we all agree on this then?
But what you say here " there is no way of return." that is a truth only for that install of that browser.
AFAIK you can always do ctrl+alt-backspace and then do su root something and then install a browser for root to use.
So one don't have to reboot only go out to prompt and tell one want to be root and old trusty puppy looks normal again?
FF and Chromium should work in Spot or Root. The .mozilla folder needs to be in $HOME, but it starts. (then again, I installed FF from a download onto my HD)nooby wrote:jpeps that worked very well
What is more problematic is that one are not allowed to just start firefox. Most likely one need to install FF and give Spot or Fido the permission to use it first.
I guess that is how it worked on the Ms Windows Vista too? Only that that was some two years ago and I fail to remember such details.
And here is the Catch 22. Fido and Spot is not officially supported yet. Built in only so Devs can have a go and test it out and fix all the bugs so us that are inpatient have none to ask how to. Too early![]()
My worst fear is that Spot is too restricted compared to any other user on Ubuntu so that people migrating will feel had for not getting a real thing only a Fido or Spot that behave in a way them not accustom to?
But if I look in opt directory that one is empty. Does this code then create a symlink to firefox or how does it works?Bruce B wrote:Nooby, it is very simple.
I changed my JWM task bar browser instructions to read like this
exec:su -c /opt/firefox/firefox spot

How is that one different from Spot?
