[Magic-dev] Magic search paths

[Graham Petley]

Hallo,

   I use my own technology file and have it in my working directory. I would
like to move it elsewhere, but then can't get Magic to find it.

magic -Tvsc200

finds file vsc200.tech27 in the . directory. But if I define the search path by
adding

path sys ". /home/dev/magic/etc" or
path sys +/home/dev/magic/etc

to the .magicrc file in

/usr/local/lib/magic/sys

then any technology file in /home/dev/magic/etc is not picked up by Magic.

   If I do the path command in Magic, all I get is

Search path for cells is "."

whereas according to Tim's web page I should get something like

Search path for cells is "." 
Cell library search path is "$CAD_ROOT/magic/scmos $CAD_ROOT/magic/tutorial" 
System search path is ". $CAD_ROOT/magic/sys $CAD_ROOT/magic/sys/current"

How can I get Magic to pick up my tech file from /home/dev/magic/etc?
