    Double Click and Run Problem

    Recently I've installed kubuntu and done some development(mainly simple hello world SDL apps such for the moment to test with). I compiled several programs and I can test them from KDevelop just fine. I can use the terminal to go to the directory where the program is and run it with "./helloworld". I CANNOT run the program in the terminal doing "helloworld", "/src/helloworld" etc... I can't get my program to run at all by typing the path in the "Run Command" box in the KMenu. Now, in konqueror, when I double click on the executable it does not run. I installed Krusader and could double click on my program and it would run fine.

    My question is is there some setting in konqueror, KDE, or somewhere that I can change so that I can run my program from the "Run Command" or by double clicking it in konqueror?

    Kubuntu is great although this is the only thing that really irks me.

    to run as 'helloworld' it would need to be in your path such as in /bin /usr/bin /usr/sbin or add the directory to your path. sometimes symlinking to the pat can work

    '/src/helloworld' also wouldnt do nothing

    ./helloworld work becuase ./ will run it try ./path/to/helloworld

    you can set konqueror to run it on a double click by right clicking 'helloworld' and 'open with' you can then configure how to from there
