Maintaining the UNIX User Environment

Typically, you create a user-defined startup script to specify environment variable settings in the UNIX software environment. You can also use the buildenv script. Progress uses the buildenv script to maintain environment variables that define objects, libraries, and options required for building executables on UNIX.

You must also maintain the PROTERMCAP file. PROTERMCAP is a terminal definition file that contains the terminal description for your monitor’s terminal type. Progress uses this file to determine how to interact with your terminal, console, or terminal emulator.
