If these bugs have already been discussed - then forgive me. Does anybody out there have any good, easy, quick solutions to the following 1. If you include something like more than 6 or 7 libraries in you project (through the suitcase) and subsequently save the project, PB very nicely regenerates your Makefile. However, because it obviously thinks that the 'LIBS = ' line is too long it sticks a line continuation character in for you. Trouble is, it doesn't do it properly (leaves somes spaces) and the project wont make because the Makefile is corrupt. So you have to edit the Makefile every time you save the project. No big annoyance but I could do without it. NeXT tell me its a hang on from 2.x and they intend to do nothing about it until next release. They suggest I write some awk/sed etc etc. I suggest to them that they write some awk/sed etc etc. 2. I work in a 6 person team. We are all writing the same application and therfore have a desire to share a project (as in Project Builder). However we can't because the .nibs can not be loaded into IB unless you are the owner. Yes, we are all in the same group (UNIX) and our Preferences permissions are set to rw-rw---- and our umask 002. What seems to happen is when the .nib is saved the permissions rw------- are set (for .nib and its files) without any reference to Preferences or umask. Now this is a MAJOR pain. A similar thing happens when you build a project and you're not the owner -a message 'fastcp : can not set network time.....etc etc' and falls over. What are the chances that no one has ever wanted to share a project before? I talked to another big NeXT site and asked them if they had similar problems. They told me they never tried sharing a project. Anyway, if anyone knows of some good ways of dealing with these could you mail me? Thanks in advance David Lomax uad1221@dircon.co.uk
