No big deal here (your system administrator should have told you
this step). There is a file

/u4/pvi/wave/bin/wvsetup

that will define all the environment variable for you. At the UNIX prompt
type

csh> source /u4/pvi/wave/bin/wvsetup

and then...

csh> wave

You should maybe put the "source" line in your .login file, or add the
following to your .cshrc file

alias WAVE "source /u4/pvi/wave/bin/wvsetup"

Then you would need only type
csh> WAVE
csh> wave

to get things going.


Good luck!
