I believe all current releases allow multiple pan sessions to be run at once, but a reasonably recent change in git now tests for another running pan instance and shuts down if it exists, as the simplest fix for a bug involving accidentally starting a second instance using the same data dir. That's a bit frustrating here, but I only do the text instance at all regularly any more, so it hasn't bothered me as much as it would someone regularly using multiple separate pan sessions, as I used to. I've been going to investigate how it's doing that with a eye toward a workaround (if it's a socket listener in $TMP as used for example with claws-mail, setting $TMP just as I set the data dir var should work, just as it does with claws-mail, which I run two instances of, one for mail, one with the appropriate plugin as my feed reader). or filing a bug to create a mechanism that can be worked around if I don't find any, but I've not done so yet.
You're right, I'll add a switch to disable/enable that feature. Cheers. _______________________________________________ Pan-users mailing list Pan-users@nongnu.org https://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/pan-users
