[linux] proper syntax for Houdini.env

Recommended Posts

Hi

After all this time as I add new libraries there is still some confusion regarding proper syntax in my Houdini.env file (Ubuntu)

1st question

When if ever should path definitions be enclosed in quotes?

2nd question

What is the proper separator to use in linux a colon or semi-colon?

3rd question

What is the purpose of ;& at the end of a line and is it necessary?

Here is my complete current houdini.env file. I am using 4 3rrd party libraries, MOPs, Redshift, QLIB and ytini
 

HOUDINI_DSO_ERROR = 2
PATH = "/home/jim/yt-conda/bin:/usr/redshift/bin:$PATH"
HOUDINI_PATH = "/home/jim/yt-conda/bin:/usr/redshift/redshift4houdini/17.0.352;&"
MOPS = /home/jim/houdini17.0/MOPS
MOTL = $MOPS/otls

QLIB="/usr/qlib"
QOTL=$QLIB/otls

# (linux)

HOUDINI_OTLSCAN_PATH = $MOTL:$QOTL/base:$QOTL/future:$QOTL/experimental:@/otls
HOUDINI_GALLERY_PATH = $QLIB/gallery:@/gallery
HOUDINI_TOOLBAR_PATH = $MOPS/toolbar:$QLIB/toolbar:@/toolbar
HOUDINI_SCRIPT_PATH = $QLIB/scripts:@/scripts
