In
BeOS,
baron is the
user who owns all of your
files, unless you change the user's name. (BeOS is single-user right now, so you have to do this manually)
All you have to do is open /boot/home/config/boot/UserSetupEnvironment and add the line:
export USER=username
You can also change the group name, with a line reading:
export GROUP=lusers (or whatever group name you want)
Then either reboot or source UserSetupEnvironment, and you're done.
baron was named after Baron Arnold, a Be engineer who was given the files as a birthday present by the author of the BFS filesystem, Dominic Giampolo.
