export works thanks. was able to get SpiderMonkey installed moved on
to my next dependency problem, which appears to be erlang. I followed
the Rel4 install notes on the wiki, but getting error configuring
using:
sudo ./configure && make && make install
results in:
configure: error: No curses library functions found
configure: error: /bin/bash '/usr/local/otp_src_R12B-2/erts/configure'
failed for erts
thanks.

try:

If you're using "sudo" to make yourself a superuser, you'll need
to specific
the JS_DIST option before typing sudo.

AM but it was telling me that JS_DIST=... is not a valid command. Is
the way its shown on the wiki exactly how I need to enter the
command,
or is there supposed to be a break in this line sequence, such as:
JS_DIST=/usr/local/spidermonkey
make -f Makefile.ref export
Sorry about not knowing this command syntax. Too many years on
Windows.

What's the exact error that you are seeing? My feeling is that
Spidermonkey was intended to be built as part of Firefox, so it
seems
tricky to install it on its own.
It was, though the build/install scripts are admittedly a pain
in the
arse.
