Re: installed tree on Mavericks 10.9.2
I did realized that tree was a command line utility, that was why I wanted it. After installing it, tree was still not working from command line. At some later time, it magically started working. Perhaps I had quit Terminal and restarted at some point, I don’t recall. Shouldn’t the install process ensure the utility is in working state or does a person always have to quit terminal and restart, or perhaps open a new Terminal window? What is the accepted procedure? What is the best macports gui front end? port contents tree results in: Port tree contains: /opt/local/bin/tree /opt/local/share/doc/tree/CHANGES /opt/local/share/doc/tree/LICENSE /opt/local/share/doc/tree/README /opt/local/share/man/man1/tree.1.gz Thx Ken On Apr 23, 2014, at 12:16, Arno Hautala a...@alum.wpi.edu wrote: On Wed, Apr 23, 2014 at 1:27 PM, Ken G.

It is not sanely possible for programs to inject PATH changes or command re-hashing into a running shell. Also the only way I can see what you describe happening is that you installed MacPorts and did not follow the directions saying that you need to start a new terminal to pick up $PATH. -- brandon s allbery kf8nh sine nomine associates allber...@gmail.com ballb...@sinenomine.net unix, openafs, kerberos, infrastructure, xmonadhttp://sinenomine.net ___ macports-users mailing list macports-users@lists.macosforge.org https://lists.macosforge.org/mailman/listinfo/macports-users
installed tree on Mavericks 10.9.2
I’ve just installed the tree utility using Pallet.app gui for MacPorts. I had tried earlier with Port Authority but had a few crashes. What is the best gui for MacPorts? Now that tree apparently is installed, how do I run it, where is the executable? Is there something I am missing in setting up to be able to run the MacPorts installed programs? Any tips appreciated.
