Dear Eike,

Installing XDS is in fact pretty straightforward - if you unpack the XDS
tarball containing the executables "somewhere sensible" - e.g.
/opt/px/xds or /usr/local/xds then put wherever you unpacked this in
your path it will work fine.

You can do this by adding this to your .bashrc file:

"export PATH=${PATH}:/where/I/put/xds"

If you are using bash or

"setenv PATH ${PATH}:/where/I/put/xds"

To your .cshrc file for c-shell (do "echo $SHELL" to find out which you
are using)

The errors you have here look like what you get if you run a c-shell
script with the bash shell (usually the default under linux)

Hope this helps,

Best wishes,

Graeme

Hello everyone,

I still consider myself new to Linux so this is probably just a minor
problem but currently I can't find a way around it - I hope that
somebody can help me.

Using the xds_inst script to install XDS I get the following error
messages:

$PATH/html_doc/xds_inst: line 20: setenv: command not found
$PATH/html_doc/xds_inst: line 23: syntax error near unexpected token `('
$PATH/html_doc/xds_inst: line 23: ` set path=($XDS $path)'

, since all the errors refer to lines of the input script 'you are not
about to change' I do not know where to start.

Thanks in advance for any advice

Kind regards

Eike
