Display type: SM
What were you trying to do?
Test adding a meeting. I setenv MEETINGS to /tmp/.m and
ran discuss expecting it to do the standard new user
stuff.
What's wrong:
Here's what happened:
tabetha<40>% discuss
discuss: No such file or directory
If you are using discuss for the first time, or if you have only used the
experimental version of discuss, you need to run the 'dsc_setup'
command from the shell.
Run dsc_setup now? (y or n) y
Running dsc_setup...
You appear to have a .meetings file; you don't need to run this.
discuss: No such file or directory
That didn't seem to work; try again? (y or n) ^C
What should have happened:
It should not ever look in ~/.meetings or check for the
existance of the file when the MEETINGS environment
variable is set. No hardcoded pathnames, please...
Please describe any relevant documentation references:
Discuss isn't documented.
