What would be the command to launch from the command line.
And where would you set the environment variable.
To start a command line on most Linux desktops, look for an icon marked "Terminal" or "Terminal Window" or "Console". That will start a command line window, with a command prompt, etc...
Typically sesame should be installed in "/usr/local", to invoke from there you would use:
/usr/local/Sesame/Program/NCLib/sesame
Of course, you can (and should) add Sesame to your command path, so you can just type "sesame".
How you set an environment variable depends on the command shell you are using. Page 462-464 covers this. In any case you would invoke a command line window, often called a "terminal window" on Unix. That will provide you with a command line. After you have set the variables the way you want them, you will want to edit the command shell startup file that gets invoked when you log in to include the variables and path settings you want. This file will be called .cshrc, .profile, or .bashrc. This will cause the environment variables to get set every time you log in.
Do you know any of the Unix command line commands (such as "ls", "cp", "rm", "mv", etc...)?
