[Isis-users] J-ISIS - Conf file and exporting

[Jean-Claude Dauphin]

Hello Leandro,

Thanks a lot Leandro for this feedback in using J-ISIS on Linux. This is
exactly the kind of feedback
that I need.
I would be interested to know if you are using a 32-bit or 64-bit Linux and
if the Data Viewer is working.

I think that under Linux, the variable DEF_HOME should be changed to:
DEF_HOME=../home_example_db
(dotdot insteed of a single dot)

You are right, the backslash is Windows specific, I changed the code to use
the system path separator.

Thanks again for taking the time to try J-ISIS on Linux.

With my best wishes,

Jean-Claude
