Thanks, Vince.
By the way, it didn't work with me.
I've been trying different ways to install ptolemy.
I created a user named ptolemy and did what Vince suggested me.
I also tried to start with source files.
I failed to create $PTOLEMY/bin.linux.
I tried them as a root and had the same result.
Did I do something wrong? Is there anybody who had the same problem of
mine?
If somebody helps me out with this problem, I'd appreciate it a lot.
