DDD has a resource called `vslPath'; it determines the places where VSL files are sought (including themes). This resource is a colon-separated list of directories, just like the PATH envivonment variable. Part of the default value for `vslPath' is computed from two sources: - your home directory, specified in the HOME environment variable, - the DDD installation directory. If any of these contains a DOS drive prefix (say, `c:/foo/bar'), this will become part of the `vslPath' value, and DDD will happily interpret this as two directories `c' and `/foo/bar'. I don't know whether this should be resolved in DDD or in your environment, but there should be a simple workaround. For instance, can you set up your PATH such that different DOS drives are referenced? If so, how? > and in the message window of ddd I get the message "java not found" This is a JDB message. If you invoke JDB as `jdb java MyClass', you get just this message. You probably meant `ddd --jdb MyClass'.
