                                     Quick Start Instructions

ISIS can now only be installed through an internet connection.

NOTE: the new installation will overwrite any development modifications you may have made to your existing system; which is why it is suggested to do a backup beforehand.

1. Commands
   • type: rsync -az isisdist.wr.usgs.gov::isis_install .

   • type: ./isis_install sync makestartup

2. Enter the paths of the directories on your system to install ISIS kits.

3. Incorporate 'isis_cshrc' and/or 'isis_profile' into your .cshrc and/or .profile files.
