Hi all!

I'm trying to install mono and gtk# on my home mac so as to avoid the hour-long trip to my school when I want to do my homework (currently attending class on web-programming in ASP.NET).

I follow the instructions given on http://www.mono-project.com/using/macos.html. I get to the part:

---------------------------
7. Configure GTK# as per the following: PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/sw/lib/pkgconfig:/usr/X11R6/lib/pkgconfig \ PATH=/usr/bin:$PATH \ ./configure --prefix=/Library/Frameworks/Mono.framework/Versions/1.0
---------------------------

And my Terminal (tcsh) tells me:

---------------------------
tcsh: PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/sw/lib/pkgconfig:/usr/X11R6/lib/pkgconfig: Command not found.
---------------------------

Further down in the instructions I see this:

---------------------------
export DYLIB_LIBRARY_PATH=/sw/lib:/Library/Frameworks/Mono.framework/Versions/1.0/lib/
---------------------------

Now, during my googling to solve my problem I *have* noticed the bug about DYLIB/DYLD in the above export command. But the line got me thinking. The "PKG_CONFIG_PATH" begins with something in capitals, so does the line with the export command *after* the command proper. So maybe what the "PKG_CONFIG_PATH"-thing lacks is a command like "export"...?

So just for the heck of it I tried:

---------------------------
export PKG_CONFIG_PATH etc. etc. etc
---------------------------

And what do I get:

---------------------------
tcsh: export: Command not found.
---------------------------

'Lost' doesn't even *begin* to describe my state of mind right now..... My mac doesn't even *know* the next command in the instructions?!

Am I using the wrong shell? Am I lacking a bleep-load of packages? Am I destined to be such a loser at unix? Or is just that I use the wrong deodorant and my Mac thinks I stink. What is it?!

Somebody, anybody, *please* help! (...sounds of pathetic crying...)

Sincerely,

Jens Larsen
