Re: Search by contents in GWorkspace

Seems like GWorkspace is using some unix tools to search for contents
and that the arguments for xargs are wrong. This is most certainly due
to the fact that you are on solaris; I guess Sun's xargs has slightly
different syntax.

Perhaps you can check the Gworkspace source, where xargs is called and
replace the wrong arguments - with correct ones, of course :-)

Only a quick guess, though.

This issue brings up a question of mine. Is there a function in gnustep
which allows one to retrieve the current arch and os GNUstep is running on?

Greetings,
Martin
