Setting up the Yeti: A Quick Start Guide in Four Steps (and a few sub-steps)

  1. Get the YETIcode archive:
    1. Option A: See way above for download link and unpack the archive to your ~/yeti folder (c:/yeti for windows).
    2. Option B: Get YETI through cvs at SourceForge:  (hit Enter when asked for a password)
      1. cvs -d:pserver:anonymous@hoople-org.cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/hoople-org login
      2. cvs -z3 -d:pserver:anonymous@hoople-org.cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/hoople-org co -P yeti
  2. Initialize the YETI support:
    1. bash ~/yeti/shells/bootstrap_shells.sh
  3. Hook up the yeti scripts: (enter the text lines verbatim)
    1. Option A: Activate yeti automatically on shell startup (please do not do this for root):
      vi ~/.bashrc
      G
      :r ~/yeti/shells/bashrc_user
      :wq
    2. Option B: Turn yeti on only when the yetime alias is invoked (it's okay for root to have this):
      vi ~/.bashrc
      G
      :r ~/yeti/shells/bashrc_root
      :wq

  4. Restart your shell environment (quit bash or command or 4nt prompts):
    1. Once you logout and log back in, the updated aliases and variables in the yeti startup scripts should be in effect.
    2. If you chose approach 3.2 above, then entering the command "yetime" will enable all the aliases.
    3. Windows shell users (4nt, cmd, etc) may have to configure the doslogin.bat to start automatically.  For example, 4nt users can set the 4start.bat file (in the option dialog) to the auto-generated $GENERADIR/4start.bat.
