There is a program that I am trying to run on a shell account. It depends on another program, which I have also copied to the shell account. Both are in my home directory, yet the first program has a different path hardcoded into it, which I cannot use because of permissions problems.

Can someone cofirm that I have got the paths correct here? :confused:

If I don't explain my issue well enough, I apologize ahead of time, extreme newbie here to scripting.

mkfontscale
MKFONTSCALE(1) General Commands Manual MKFONTSCALE(1)NAME
mkfontscale - create an index of scalable font files for X
SYNOPSIS
mkfontscale [ -b ] [ -s ] [ -o filename ] [ -x suffix ] [ -a encoding ] ... [ -f fuzz ] [ -l ] [ -e directory ] [ -p prefix ] [ -r prefix ]
[ -n prefix ] [ -- ] [ directory ] ...
DESCRIPTION
For each directory argument, mkfontscale reads all of the scalable font files in the directory. For every font file found, an X11 font
name (XLFD) is generated, and is written together with the file name to a file fonts.scale in the directory.
The resulting fonts.scale file should be checked and possibly manually edited before being used as input for the mkfontdir(1) program.
OPTIONS -b read bitmap fonts. By default, bitmap fonts are ignored.
-s ignore scalable fonts. By default, scalable fonts are read. If -b is set, this flag has the side effect of enabling the reading of
fonts.scale files.
-o filename
send program output to filename; default is fonts.scale if bitmap fonts are not being read, and fonts.dir if they are. If filename
is relative, it is created in the directory being processed. If it is the special value -, output is written to standard output.
-x suffix
exclude all files with the specified suffix.
-a encoding
add encoding to the list of encodings searched for.
-f fuzz
set the fraction of characters that may be missing in large encodings to fuzz percent. Defaults to 2%.
-l Write fonts.dir files suitable for implementations that cannot reencode legacy fonts (BDF and PCF). By default, it is assumed that
the implementation can reencode Unicode-encoded legacy fonts.
-e specifies a directory with encoding files. Every such directory is scanned for encoding files, the list of which is then written to
an "encodings.dir" file in every font directory.
-p Specifies a prefix that is prepended to the encoding file path names when they are written to the "encodings.dir" file. The prefix
is prepended literally: if a `/' is required between the prefix and the path names, it must be supplied explicitly as part of the
prefix.
-r Keep non-absolute encoding directories in their relative form when writing the "encodings.dir" file. The default is to convert rel-
ative encoding directories to absolute directories by prepending the current directory. The positioning of this options is signifi-
cant, as this option only applies to subsequent -e options.
-n do not scan for fonts, do not write font directory files. This option is useful when generating encoding directories only.
-- end of options.

The format of the fonts.scale, fonts.dir and encodings.dir files is documented in the mkfontdir(1) manual page.
Mkfontscale will overwrite any fonts.scale file even if it has been hand-edited.
mkfontscale -b -s -l is equivalent to mkfontdir.
AUTHOR
The version of mkfontscale included in this X.Org Foundation release was originally written by Juliusz Chroboczek <jch@freedesktop.org> for
the XFree86 project. The functionality of this program was inspired by the ttmkfdir utility by Joerg Pommnitz.
