<font face="arial" size="2"><p style="margin:0;padding:0;font-family: arial; font-size: 10pt; overflow-wrap: break-word;">So, following the kerl docs I get through this step:</p>
<p style="margin:0;padding:0;font-family: arial; font-size: 10pt; overflow-wrap: break-word;"> </p>
<p style="margin:0;padding:0;font-family: arial; font-size: 10pt; overflow-wrap: break-word;">~/Kerl/21.1$ kerl list installations<br />21.1 /home/lloyd/Kerl/21.1</p>
<p style="margin:0;padding:0;font-family: arial; font-size: 10pt; overflow-wrap: break-word;"> </p>
<p style="margin:0;padding:0;font-family: arial; font-size: 10pt; overflow-wrap: break-word;">Now, the docs say:</p>
<p style="margin:0;padding:0;font-family: arial; font-size: 10pt; overflow-wrap: break-word;"> </p>
<p style="margin:0;padding:0;font-family: arial; font-size: 10pt; overflow-wrap: break-word;">And at last activate it:</p>
<p style="margin:0;padding:0;"><code>$ . /path/to/install/dir/activate
<br />I try it:<br /><br />$ ./home/lloyd/Kerl/21.1/activate<br />bash: ./home/lloyd/Kerl/21.1/activate: No such file or directory<br /><br />I look into ...Kerl/21.1:<br /><br />~$ cd Kerl/21.1<br />lloyd@wg-dev:~/Kerl/21.1$ ls -l<br />total 40<br />-rw-rw-r-- 1 lloyd lloyd 3547 Nov 20 17:57 activate<br />-rw-rw-r-- 1 lloyd lloyd 2644 Nov 20 17:57 activate.csh<br />-rw-rw-r-- 1 lloyd lloyd 3061 Nov 20 17:57 activate.fish<br />drwxrwxr-x 2 lloyd lloyd 4096 Nov 20 17:57 bin<br />drwxr-xr-x 8 lloyd lloyd 4096 Nov 20 17:57 erts-10.1<br />...<br /><br />Then I try:<br /><br />$ ./Kerl/21.1/activate<br />bash: ./Kerl/21.1/activate: Permission denied<br /><br />I make activate executable (out of a sheer guess)<br /><br />~/Kerl/21.1$ ls -l<br />total 40<br />-rwxrwxr-x 1 lloyd lloyd 3547 Nov 20 17:57 activate<br /><br />And try:<br /><br />~/Kerl/21.1$ ls -l<br />total 40<br />-rwxrwxr-x 1 lloyd lloyd 3547 Nov 20 17:57 activate<br /><br />~/Kerl/21.1$ erl -version<br />Erlang (SMP,ASYNC_THREADS,HIPE) (BEAM) emulator version 8.3.5<br /><br />~/Kerl/21.1$ cd ~<br /><br />:~$ erl<br />Erlang/OTP 19 [erts-8.3.5] [source] [64-bit] [smp:4:4] [async-threads:10] [hipe] [kernel-poll:false]<br /><br />So, the afternoon is gone.

I'm one step away from success, <br />but totally thwarted.<br /><br />Can wiser heads boost me over this big washout in the road?<br /><br />If so, I'll do my best to write some doc language.<br /><br />All the best,<br /><br />Lloyd<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /></code></pre>
