OK. If you read this you probably got the python tools developed at LMD (planetary science team). [If someone gave you this README, and you don't have the actual codes on your computer, get it through SVN svn co http://svn.lmd.jussieu.fr/Planeto/trunk/UTIL/PYTHON] Each folder contains python modules and program you might want to access from anywhere This is done through the PYTHONPATH environment variable We also recommend to add PYTHONPATH to your PATH to use scripts anywhere In a nutshell: Assume you want to do that for two folders, say "planetoplot_v2" and "mcd" Add to environment file (e.g. .bashrc) those lines PYTHONPATH=$PYTHONPATH:you_got_to_adapt_this_to_your_own/PYTHON/planetoplot_v2 PYTHONPATH=$PYTHONPATH:you_got_to_adapt_this_to_your_own/PYTHON/mcd export PYTHONPATH PATH=$PYTHONPATH:$PATH export PATH Don't forget to source the environment file. Then enjoy! ---------------------------- Note by A. Spiga. 27/04/2013
