Hi folks,

I'd like to run 2 separate instances of PAN 0.132 in Ubuntu 8.04.1.
Is this possible? If so, how would I achieve this?

I think all you'd have to do would be to set the environment variable PAN_HOME to something other than $HOME/.pan2 for the second instance. For example, you could set it to $HOME/.pan2.2 and the 2nd instance would use ~/.pan2.2 for its database. To make it more convenient, you could write a 2-line script that sets PAN_HOME to the non-standard value and then runs pan. You would then just use that script to launch the 2nd instance. You could have 2 panel launchers, with one just launching pan normally and the other running the script.
