[Tutorial/HowTo] Install PureBasic 4.01 on Ubuntu Linux

[srod]

That indeed looks just the ticket.

Thanks.



**EDIT : ah, I had already done that but ended up altering the default program for all text files! Doh!

Are there other Linux programs that use the PB extension?

Asking because I haven't used Ubuntu for a couple of versions. I am using Mandriva.

Well, it seems that all .pb files are recognised as text files by Ubuntu and so when I ran through the procedure for default programs etc. I ended up changing the default for all text files. No big deal though.

My apologies and definitely my fuck up. I forgot that Linux generally ignores file extensions and goes by file contents for associations.

I'd already set the default program before asking for help, so it is my f*ck up!

The guide pdf is no longer on RapidShare or anywhere else. Can someone provide a link for it?
