Re: [Announce] ApMeFo (beta 0.9-2) - Create custom folders in your Application Menu
 
Doh, I'm a complete idiot!

Of course creating the file fails - I'm trying to write it to a folder that doesn't exist on most people's system. The only reason it worked for me was that I already messed with my menu manually, so I already had created the folder in question.

I'm uploading the (hopefully) fixed version now...

Thanks again to everybody for pointing this out!

Yes when I said fix the error I was going to see if the folders existed. You saved me the trouble, I just arrived home and was about to get started. I am no coder, but I usually can find the reason for most quirks and bugs without resorting to the code.

Linux does seem to have trouble sometimes when creating new directories. And deleting not empty directory.

One thing I am trying to solve (not related with ApMeFo) right now is a shortcut for Little Big Adventure (LBA). It is very nice and even has an icon. The game boots but those damn permissions. When it comes to save the game quits. It doesn't have the permission to write the file. Not even using xterm, the game still quits. It works only when opened as root. Ah well..I will solve it one day.

The new version works now.

It can be pretty picky, true. But then again it's the coder's fault for being too lazy to make checks before saving. :D

Did you try to chmod the folder to give non-admin users full permission to it?

I have the following problem:

I can create folders, but as soon as I put apps in a folder and click "Update Folder" but then nothing happens.

Even if I click on "Activate" and then not even the folders are displayed.
