Scratch

Without Wine.

I took the VM, the .image, the shell script, and all the plugins (for panther, if it helps).

I edited the shell script to show the new directories, but it just opened terminal and closed straight away again. Is it to do with the .image? Because I thought the point of a VM is that it can work everywhere without many changes.

Of course, I could use wine but that runs it slowly.

I'm not awfully familiar with Linux, but maybe this topic can help you? Of course, you can always directly download the Scratch program for Linux.

youre a mod now? god ive been away for ages.

anyway... That was written from before the official scratch for linux and the Ofiicial Scratch for Linux installation includes a shell script which I have edited to do exactly what that says there, only automatic.

I'm afraid I don't remember you, sorry. But yes, I'm a mod.

I think there's further, and more recent, discussion later on in the thread.

Well, you might as well try it smile

Maybe with all the complications you did something wrong, and an official, automatic Scratch program simply won't allow for that to happen.

Regardless, I found (when I had Linux) that Scratch didn't work so well anyways.

I assume the shell script has been chmod-ed already, but try this anyway:

Code:

sudo chmod +x /path/to/script

Then once you try to open the script, you should get a dialog asking if you want to execute or view it. Which option, specifically, are you choosing? Also, what distro are you using?

Download the .image. Open it in a different vm.
