Up: The Page Wizard

Running the Page Wizard (UNIX)

Under UNIX, the Page Wizard is started by a shell script called WebEQ_Wizard. By default, this script is linked in your home directory. To start the Editor, go to that directory and enter "WebEQ_Wizard" at your command prompt.

Of course, the Page Wizard is also a Java program, so it can be executed by invoking the Java interpreter or Java Runtime Environment on the full class name. Assuming that the Java interpreter on your system can be run by typing the command "java", and the Runtime Environment is invoked with the command "jre" then the commands to run the Page Wizard are:

      java webeq.wizard.Wizard

      jre  webeq.wizard.Wizard

Since the Java interpreter needs to be able to find the Page Wizard class files, it is important that the CLASSPATH environment variable be set to include the base directory containing the "webeq" classes directory tree. In particular, unless you moved this directory tree after installation, the CLASSPATH should include the full pathname of the "classes" subdirectory of the WebEQ distribution.

An important point to keep in mind when running the Page Wizard: Unless you have configured your server to distribute the WebEQ Math Viewer applet, you will need to have previously installed the Math Viewer applet in your browser to view pages with interactive equations. You can install the free Math Viewer applet from www.mathtype.com
