How may I modify the start script in this type?

[Harryzhu]

Hi,

I come to one new firm and help to update the IC design environment since
adding more powerful workstations. I transfer the source design tools to new
machines and share them, but when I need to update the csh script, I meet
some troubles. According to old setting, if you use CIC tool, you need to
input 'SIC50 ic50.csh' instead of normal 'icfb', but since the script
'SIC50' is one binary code, how may I modify it?

I don't know how to deal with all kinds of tools' start script in big
firms, I add normal tools's setting to one .cshrc file and some other
unpopular ones to single csh file, you can use normal tools directly but
have to source one csh file when using unpopular tools. I heard some firms
develop ADS(ASIC Design System) and hide all those bottom things, who may
give me more info about it?

Thanks for your help!

Best Regards,

Harryzhu

One way to do this is with hard/soft links ...

You have a consistent startup file that all use ...
They all source some local file (say /local/ic50 ... )
and this is a link to the ic50 that this machine wants ....
