tdom is required and I need help installng it   Message List

Re: tdom is required and I need help installng it

You've spent a great deal of time and effort with me here and I really
appreciate it. At this point I am pulling the plug, and live without installing
this program. May not like it anyway.

What put me over the edge is the fact that the $PATH variable will not remain
updated with the additional info. I can put it in, then do an echo, see its
there, do a which, close terminal, reopen do a where, get a "not recognized
command", do an echo $PATH and have the variable in its original state.
Egads!!!!!!!!!!! Tried export using sudo (sudo export ....) and that also fails
with "not recognized sudo export".

Little frustrated with Ubuntu as well since I was never allowed to install
ActiveTcl in /opt, which appears to be the desired default for ActiveTcl.
Ubuntu doesn't allow a root logon, and the graphical installer for ActiveTcl
doesn't appear to do sudo, so.../home it is

Ubuntu appears to have removed tDOM from their repository, so all around I'm
having road bumps.

Venting complete

Thanks again, you're a good man!
