I am trying to make JOVE 4.9 on an NCR TOWER 32/600 running Sys V Rel 2, and
after a lot of trouble managed to get the executables. Now when i try to
test it, it gives me the following message after hiting the first key
"[Already defining ... continue with definition]"
It looks like it is not recognising the key-bindings came with it. Any idea
what is going on?
thanx in advance,
virantha

It may be a corrupted entry in there which does not complete the bindings, leaving you with one in progress. If this fixes it, than try re-creating the file, one line at a time, till the problem recurs. When there is an error in the .joverc file, and you get far enough for it to recognize commands, the error messages are collected in one of the windows. Once you get it going, (and get used to it), you'll find jove to be a great editor. I use it on 7 Unix systems and MS-DOS, as well.
