Do this: % echo "int main(void) { return 1; }" > foo.c && gcc foo.c -o foo ; ./foo If you get any errors check for your gcc installation.

fopen error number??

Greetings: Just installed Slack8.0 (2.2.19) on a fresh HD, restoring backed up user files only from original working HD, that was Slack7.1 (2.2.16). Simple setup using A AP and N groups only.. Everything working fine except one that baffles me: Using Mutt and Metamail, default distribution packages, I can't save a jpeg attachment to a file, in order to view it.. The report is: "fopen: Permission denied (errno=13" I checked and compared the file permissions on all the files I could think of, plus checked for the libraries, and see no difference between this machine and another similar machine that saves the files correctly... I have some books on C but I can't find what errno 13 is. I had the original senders re-send the attachments to two different email addresses and the problem follows the above mentioned machine only.. Have never experienced this before.. Any suggestions? TIA..
