If it’s your first time using the terminal line under your own log-in credentials (whether using FastX, NoMachine, etc.), you'll need to define some commands in order to run the utilities you want.

To do so, from your terminal type gedit ~/.bashrc (or otherwise open the .bashrc file in another favorite text editor like emacs or vim). This will bring up a new window.

Copy the text below and paste it into the file you’ve opened. [Note: the NoMachine windows share the same clipboard as your desktop, though this may be trickier using FastX.] Once successful, click ‘save’ and exit the text editor. Now from the terminal, you should be able to do things like launch MEC Home, mecpython, VNC, etc.

If you're still having trouble, try typing source ~/.bashrc or try exiting your session completely and starting with a fresh terminal to make sure it sees the new definitions.

WARNING: THERE MAY BE SPECIAL CHARACTERS PROBLEMS WHEN COPYING AND PASTING – WATCH OUT FOR PROBLEMS!!
