Description Top
To start CDE from the command line:

- Make sure your OPENWINHOME environment variable is set to /usr/openwin

  To see if it is set, type: echo $OPENWINHOME.  If it returns /usr/openwin,
  it is set correctly.  If it returns nothing, you will need to set it.

  To set it in C-Shell, type: setenv OPENWINHOME /usr/openwin 
  To set it in Bourne Shell or K-Shell, type:
    OPENWINHOME=/usr/openwin;export OPENWINHOME

- Make sure your PATH environment variable has /usr/dt/bin and /usr/openwin/bin
  at the front of it

  To see if it is set, type: echo $PATH.  If PATH is set correctly, /usr/dt/bin
  and /usr/openwin/bin will be at the front of it.

  To add these paths to PATH in C-Shell, type:
    setenv PATH /usr/dt/bin:/usr/openwin/bin:${PATH}

  To add these paths to PATH in Bourne shell or K-shell, type:
    PATH=/usr/dt/bin:/usr/openwin/bin:${PATH};export PATH
  
- Type the command: /usr/openwin/bin/xinit /usr/dt/bin/Xsession
