finally successfully native compiled dialog.
To run I have to change directory to
/opt/dialog/bin
and run ./dialog
So I see I have to set up configuration file and global environment.
But how ?
I run make install.
And another issue is I run dialog connecting via putty terminal from
notebook MS Vista to a router and having copied some examples from the net, some characters in examples are replaced by "dot".
dialog -msgbox �Dialog Exit Example�
dialog .msgbox .Dialog Exit Example.
What terminal, keyboard emulation should I select in puty configuration ?
Add the below entry at the end of you .profile (I'm assuming you are the only user who is interested in doing this):
PATH=$PATH:/opt/dialog/bin
export PATH
Logout/login and it should work fine.
I've posted a reply to your other question which you posted in another thread. Please do not spawn multiple threads for same question - its wastage of everyone's time.

Thanks my friend.
Exactly what I did yesterday, basing on Google search in Linux forums.
And didn't work for me.
On Linux embedded device I need to
flashfs save && flashfs commit && flashfs enable && rebootto get changes saved in flash.
The issue is I have 4 profile files on a system
/tmp/etc/profile
/tmp/mnt/disc3_0..../etc/profile
/opt/etc/profile
/usr/etc/profile
Exactly I am the only administrator of a router.

Hi,
I did as you advised me
run
flashfs save && flashfs commit && flashfs enable && reboot
router rebooted
and still the same problem, path is not updated.
Any idea ?
Jack
