Re: Using new palettes in go scripts

[Arindam Chakraborty <arch@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Dixon,
	rnb2-rev.spk should be in any of the directories of your path
pointed by the environment variable FER_PALETTE; Normally this
includes the current directory too. If you are using unix and c-shell
try using the command
% setenv | grep FER_PALETTE
to see which all directories ferret considers for searching .spk
files. You can always add path to this environment variable using
% setenv FER_PALETTE "$FER_PALETTE private_pal_dir_name"

For bash shell, you can use printenv and export instead of setenv.
