OpenInteract2

kitaeratu has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

I download openinteract and tried to use it so I read this "http://www.openinteract.org/docs/oi2/OpenInteract2/Manual/QuickStart.html "

The documentation ask to write this

$ export OPENINTERACT2=/PATH/TO/WEBSITE

But where do I write that? on command prompt?

Sorry I am new to PERL, plz help

Thanks

The syntax you displayed suggests a command prompt (the leading $ represents the prompt). The command given will work for Bourne or Bourne based shells. If you are using C shell or tcsh, use `$ setenv OPENINTERACT2 /PATH/TO/WEBSITE` [download] Once you test the code, you may with to add these commands to your .profile for Bourne based shells or .login for c based shells.

Hmm. You may have better luck if you ask this question somewhere at openinteract instead of here. On the web page you gave, most of the grey boxes appear to be command lines which you should type at a shell prompt, so the answer is to your question is yes. Have you read through any of the online documentation beyond this QuickStart? If you are new to Linux/Unix systems you should read some background documentation, such as those found at the Linux Documentation Project Good luck. --bibo	[reply]
