You should also mention (in the FAQ, perhaps elsewhere) that in the UNIX
ports (Linux, and probably NeXTstep too) that when you enter your serial
number, you'll have to run Executor as root, since it modifies itself and
(presumably) only root has write access to the file itself. It sounds to
me (from available documentation) that this is how Executor records it's
new serial number, if this is not the case then please ignore my
attempted suggestion.
