I have just installed, under the very able guidance of Graham

missing here? I'm thinking it might be that the program was installed
(at Graham's suggestion) in /usr/src/ instead of some other
directory, as when a program is installed by ports. I did uninstall
the port version (2.2.2) and run the gmake install, etc. per the
instructions. This is from the xterm where I run it:
I don't think it was installed in /usr/src; it was unzipped there.
I can't remember if I told you that the "gmake install" needed to be
run as root -- either
su to root and run "gmake install", or (if it's set up) run "sudo gmake
install". When you
do that, look at the messages -- they should be about installing stuff
in
/usr/local/STUFF (ie /usr/local/bin, /usr/local/share, etc)
If that still doesn't work, then do "set | grep PATH". In
PATH=blahblah, you should see
/usr/local/bin. If not, you'll need to figure out how to add
/usr/local/bin to your path.
Cheers,
