Re: nam-1.0a7?

Hi,
   I try it again but still have problems.

Yes. I am the root of my machine. However, when I installed it under a 
user account. Certainly, when it is needed, I open all permission.

I think it should complete it when I installed otcl and tclcl because, 
at that time, it automatically established some directory under 
system directroy.

Just a momnet ago, I checked the output information reported by 
"./configure" of nam-1.0a7. I did not find anything wrong. I attach it 
with this email. Hope you can give me further help.

I also directly define the environment variable PATH. However, the 
outcome is still the same.

The following are some lines extracted from the output information 
generated by "./configure". The whole file has been attached by this 
email.
