Hey, don't click the open button! I have two fixes for this one. Testers have reported success for one fix, that's scrambled into a moderately substantial re-write of item-opening code (to better handle items in a recognised filetype but with inappropriate X permission flag set). I don't propose to release that now. But a small patch for 0.2.0, which should achieve the same effect, is as follows: --- e2_task_backend.c 2006-08-22 21:59:57.000000000 -0400 +++ e2_task_backend-new.c 2006-08-30 08:23:06.000000000 -0400 @@ -1393,4 +1393,11 @@ gboolean retval; gchar *utf, *ext, *freeme, *base = NULL; + gboolean addedpath = !g_path_is_absolute (path); + if (addedpath) + { + freeme = F_FILENAME_TO_LOCALE (curr_view->dir); + path = e2_utils_strcat (freeme, path); + F_FREE (freeme); + } utf = F_FILENAME_FROM_LOCALE (path); //not DISPLAY if (e2_fs_is_dir3 (path)) @@ -1496,4 +1503,6 @@ } + if (addedpath) + g_free (path); F_FREE (utf); #ifndef E2_ASYNC You should probably also change the default filetype action for executable items from "./%f" to just "%f" (no quotes in either case) as the patch prepends an absolute path to each item to be activated.
