Re: [C++] Noob question: compiling in linux and .xsi oddity

["Alan Jones" <skyphyr(at)gmail.com>]

Hi Greg,

That error is the one you get if you're not sourcing from in csh -
which is odd as it looks like you are.

Try going to a shell by hand just to make sure - so fire up bash
run csh to start csh
then source
then make

Cheers,

Alan.
