Trouble Installing Eiffel on Linux suse !

[khashyar7]

After downloading and unzipping the Eiffel 5.5 on the system, I tried to set the environment variables as the documentation is suggesting:

set ISE_PLATFORM=linux-glibc2.1
However, after when I ask about the value of ISE_PLATFORM, I get a message that "linux-glibc2.1: not found"



$ISE_PLATFORM

bash: linux-glibc2.1: command not found

Do you know what the way around this !?

$ export ISE_LINUX='linux-glibc2.1'
$ echo $ISE_LINUX
linux-glibc2.1
[/tt]
You need to 'echo' the $VARIABLE. if you just $VARIABLE, the shell will interpret the variable as a command, and it doesn't know how to just 'linux-glibc2.1'

Not sure what Eiffel is, so not sure if there's any other help I can offer.
