Hi Prabir,

What is your /mypath in this case? Does it match the file location on your computer? I was lazy, and put the unzipped archive in my home directory, so for me this is what I added to my .vmdrc file:

lappend auto_path /home/josh/la1.0
lappend auto_path /home/josh/orient

I have zero idea what the equivalent would look like in windows, if that happens to be your operating system of choice.

Hi VMD Users,

I installed the Orient package following the instructions that are given in the
VMD website. I have added the following lines in .vmdrc as well

lappend auto_path /my_path/la1.0
lappend autol_path /my_path/orient
However, I am getting an error 'can't find pacakge Orient', while I am typing
'package require Orient' in the tk console. In fact, I have checked whether .vmdrc file is sourced by adding a line like puts stderr "sourcing .vmdrc right now" as I found in vmd mailing library and this message is being displayed on loading vmd. Can anyone please suggest me how to make Orient work?

Happy New Year!
Thanks,

Prabir
