Account Setup to Use the Software

First make sure the /r/share1 disk partition is mounted on the computer you are using (check cd /r/share1, for instance). If not, ask your sysadm to mount it (the disk is on toucan).

Modification to the Account Setup

  1. Add /r/share1/bin to the PATH:
    • csh, tcsh: setenv PATH ${PATH}:/r/share1/bin

  2. Add /r/share1/man to the MANPATH:
    • csh, tcsh: setenv MANPATH ${MANPATH}:/r/share1/man

  3. Set XAPPLRESDIR to /r/share1/lib/X11/app-default/:
    • csh, tcsh: setenv XAPPLRESDIR /r/share1/lib/X11/app-default/

This gives access to all software in /r/share1 (except the programs to support foreign languages, see below). Alternatively, if you want to use only some specific programs, read the UCLA-README file of the programs you want to use (/r/share1/src/program/UCLA-README), and modify the environment variables accordingly.

Foreign language support

/r/share1 fosters programs designed to support foreign languages, especially asian languages. They are located under the /r/share1/foreign hierarchy. To set up your account to use them, read /r/share1/foreign/README.

There is no user support from the CSD help staff for the /r/share1 resources.
