I don't know for sure what the problem might be as I have never used
poy, but generally what I would try is recompiling any libraries poy
depends on and then recompile poy. If it only requires the SDK, make
sure that the NEW X11 SDK is installed and then recompile poy. This
has worked for me for a few applications.
Good Luck,
DT

I am an evolutionary biologist trying to get a niffty program called
poy to run on my desktop. If it works there I will be able to get the
IT personal install the necessary software to run it on lab computers.
In 10.2.8, running the most recent X11 beta with the SDK installed, I
was able to run poy without a hitch. I'm a gluten for punishment, so
I
installed 10.3 with the included X11. I knew that fink and it's
components would not work but now poy doesn't work.
I did notice that instead of firing up in tcsh, X11 now opens to what
appears to be bash shell, I've switched over to tcsh and tried the
poy
executable from w/in its directory and no luck.
Any ideas why what once worked does not? Keep in mind, poy is not
dependent on any fink installations as far as I can tell. It does,
however, require the SDK to operate.
Muchas gracias for any feedback,

Well, now I'm faced with a new problem. I figured out that from some
of the apps in X11, the commands will not run. This is because the
path on my new account, same box - just a new account, did not include
the locations of the command executables. Not a problem right?
set path=(.....)
I'm obviously a novice, because when I do that the path only remains
for the current session. Quit the x server and login again, path is
back to the default. I imagine there is a configure file of some kind
but I don't know where to look. Could I get some help on setting the
path and keeping it set for more than a single session?
Thanks again you've all been very helpful,
