Advanced Toolchest Customization

There are two ways to edit what programs are launched from the Toolchest. The first one is using your .chestrc in your home directory.

nedit .chestrc

This will modify the "Dev Tool" entry in the Toolchest. The syntax is simple:

"name of application"     f.checkexec.sh.le "app"

The "name of application" is how you want the the entry to read in the menu, such as "Launch Freeciv". The second entry after f.checkexec.sh.le is the actual binary name, such as "civserver".

Save logout/in

You can also edit the other entries in the Toolchest. This one lives in /opt/MaXX/etc/.

Warning: Editing this file requires root (superuser) privileges. Make a backup copy before you do anything!

sudo nedit /opt/MaXX/etc/system.chestrc

You can edit the entries here the same way the .chestrc is edited.

When you are finished, save, logout/in.
