Hi Steve (and other readers) I have worked out what my misunderstanding was and I share it so that others can avoid the (perhaps too obvious) trap I fell in to. I was not in the new environment when I was running the tutorials. I had worked through the first 11 tutorials, and then came back to number 12 on the next day (and thus in a new terminal). In looking at your advice to follow Requirements.html to the letter, I thought I had already done so. But I now realize that my terminal session did not have (env) as part of the prompt.
But all is well now, and I am progressing through the remaining tutorials. Thanks for your help Steve. It is nice that you take the time to help out us noobs.
