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

Subject: [ccp4bb] xds installation
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
