An error when trying to load the manual #17

Hey there!

Loving pter. I noticed this error when I hit the manual key while using the terminal version. It's also happening in the Qt version.

*Access to the file was denied

The file at /home/jason/.local/lib/python3.10/site-packages/pter/docs/pter.html is not readable. It may have been removed, moved, or file permissions may be preventing access.*

There is a .html file there, but I can't access it either just by trying to open it with a browser.

Ahoy!

That’s a really strange one! I can’t reproduce it on my machine, so I will have to ask a lot of stupid questions (sorry for that). Let’s start with these:

What OS/distribution are you running?
What browser does it start? And is that your preferred browser?
What does ls -l /home/jason/.local/lib/python3.10/site-packages/pter/docs/pter.html say?
If you have a blank text file at /home/jason/blank.txt and you try to open it in your browser (file:///home/jason/blank.txt), does that work?

It's been a year, so I'll close this. If the issue should pop up again, feel free to reopen the issue!
