This topic provides information for users of Rigi binary distributions. See also
RigiDevelopment if you work with Rigi's source code.
Installing
RigiEdit basically means that you have to extract the contents of the archive (ZIP, tar, etc.) into a new directory. This directory is referred to as
$RIGI.
Linux with (ba)sh:
> mkdir rigibase
> cd rigibase
> export RIGI=`pwd`
> export PATH=$RIGI/bin:$PATH
> wget http://www.rigi.cs.uvic.ca/downloads/rigi/ix86-linux2/rigiedit-12-Jan-2003-bin.tar.gz
> gunzip rigiedit-12-Jan-2003-bin.tar.gz
> tar xvf rigiedit-12-Jan-2003-bin.tar
To set the environment variables RIGI and
PATH for tcsh, replace the above two lines with:
> setenv RIGI `pwd`
> set path=($RIGI/bin$path)
