There are instructions on the Install page for how you set those
environmental variables[1][2][3], at least within a command shell.
If you want to set them up to be available across all command shells,
then that will depend on your operating system. You don't tell us which
operating system you are using, so it is difficult to know how to direct
you.You can look at Windows XP instructions[4] which largely apply to
Vista and Windows 7 as well[5], or if you are on a Macintosh you can
look at instructions for OS X using tcsh[6] or bash[7].

Hi,
First of all, I have to say that I am a not versed in computers. I need to install and
run a program called NESTEDMICA that requires ANT. The problem is... How in heaven can I
install ANT? Just to get you an idea where my difficulties started, I couldn't set the
environmental variables JAVA_HOME and ANT_HOME as required in the "Installing
ANT" section of the manual. Hopefully, someone is able and willing to sit for a good
while and write a detailed procedure to get this done.
Thank you very much for your help.
Raul
