Hello folks.

I'm trying to locally install the BXH Tools so I can run bxh2analyze and other functions. I downloaded the bxh_xcede_tools-1.10.7-MacOSX.i686 from NITRIC and have extracted the package, but I'm at a loss as to how I actually install the tools and get them to run from the terminal. Any preference for where the package with its /bin, /etc, /lib, and /share subdirectories should be placed?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Jeff

You need to extract them into somewhere in your search path.

By default if you put them all in /usr/local/bin/ , they'll be in your path.

Alternatively you can put them anywhere you want as long as you edit your path in the ~/.bash_profile file

Also, as an FYI ... i always put them in /usr/local/packages and then add the path to the /etc/profile

So put them here:
/usr/local/packages/bxh_xcede_tools-1.10.7

Then add this to my /etc/profile for the system

BXHDIR=/usr/local/packages/bxh_xcede_tools-1.10.7
PATH=$BXHDIR/bin:$PATH
export BXHDIR PATH;
