Forgive what may be a very simple question… I have recently installed coot using the very nice CCP4 .dmg (0.7.0-i386) - which now puts coot into /Applications I now need to set a $PATH to coot, such that various home-made scripts now 'know' where it is
Here I have hit a hurdle. Which binary file do I need to point a path variable to? >From terminal I can use the command ' open -a coot ' - everything works fine >and dandy. However, I cannot use ' /Applications/coot.app/Contents/MacOS/coot ' reliably - sometimes it works, but most of the time it crashes with the following errors... Nov 23 12:17:02 coot-real[80005] <Error>: kCGErrorIllegalArgument: CGSGetSurfaceBounds Nov 23 12:17:02 coot-real[80005] <Error>: kCGErrorFailure: Set a breakpoint @ CGErrorBreakpoint() to catch errors as they are logged.
