So you've sh instead of bash. Try the following:

Code: [Select]

echo 'export X3DNA=/c/dssrC/x3dna-v2.3' >> ~/.profile
echo 'export PATH=$X3DNA/bin:$PATH' >> ~/. profile
tail ~/.profile
Close, and start a new terminal, try:

Code: [Select]

find_pair -h
This time it should work -- report back how it goes!

I got the same error. Is there a set of instructions that i can use each time i launch the program to avoid this? Or is it better to remove everything and start from the very beginning?
Thx a lot for your help Sir

Then as I mentioned before, just type:

Code: [Select]

source ~/.bashrc
Then all 3DNA v2.3 commands will be available directly. I've tried hard to help you avoid this 'extra' step. For now, it's better that you just remember to run this command.

For new users who has little background on command-line programs, the w3DNA web server may be a better choice.

Thanks for your patience.

So each time, I run it (after typing source ~/.bashrc) as shown in the attached picture, and it is ready to use now, right?
