Problems capturing window (Solaris)

[Philip]

I get the error "Error: Can't open file" if I try to capture a window on Solaris.

File-capture->Select a Window

Can't open file </var/tmp/aaauza4xn>

I can, and have been for a long time, working around it by
File->capture->Single window. That will work fine.

I am trying to upgrade to 1.68 xnview to see if it goes away. But, 1.68 is giving me other trouble to install.... which I will post separately.

Thanks for all advices on this.

Which version?

v1.25 is the version I'm using on Solaris.

I want to upgrade to latest but I'm having a problem with the installation. Which I posted on another thread.

Thanks Pierre.

No in fact, ksh xnview.sh (Korn shell) should work with -e file condition...
To work in both shell (sh or ksh) xnview.sh should be written with
-x file conditon (file exists and is executable):
if [ -x /sbin/uname -o -x /bin/uname ]; then
