is it possible to change $HOME dir with `su` command, eg `su -m user -c "echo $HOME"` to be equal to the user's home dir ?

or should I manually set $HOME variable ?

are you sure your test isn't just wrong? did you try with env or -c 'echo $HOME' so that your current shell doesn't do the replacement?

I need this command for cron

to run in `user` home dir

sh and fish both set the homedir to '/'

Why are you doing -m then?

oh ...

correct

my brain cooked ...

thanks

any suggestions for e-book reader, please? I am using FBReader now.

Hmm... Someone seems to have "improved" pkg with warning. Running "pkg upgrade -f" emits the message "pkg: Warning: Major OS version upgrade detected. Running "pkg bootstrap -f" recommended". Which is of course exactly what was happening. That's a lame warning when that is exactly what was happening.
