[xcrysden] Error in installation (vinit sharma)

[sreekar guddeti]

Dear Vineet,

>I am trying to use XCrySDen on ubuntu.(1.4.1 version)
>but at last after typing xcrysden it shows
>"/home/vinit/XCrySDen/
>
> XCrySDen-1.4.1s-all/xcrysden: 200:
> /home/vinit/XCrySDen/XCrySDen-1.4.1s-all/bin/xcrys: not found"


this means that the path(in which executables are searched) is not set to
include the xcrysden execuatable's location
in shell edit the .bashrc file as su
$gedit .bashrc

##at the end of file add
XCRYSDEN_TOPDIR=/path/to/Xcrysden/directory/
XCRYSDEN_SCRATCH=/path/to/tempdirectory
export XCRYSDEN_TOPDIR XCRYSDEN_SCRATCH
PATH="$XCRYSDEN_TOPDIR:$PATH:$XCRYSDEN_TOPDIR/scripts:$XCRYSDEN_TOPDIR/util"

##save the file

and run xcrysden at shell
$xcrysden

best wishes,
