Installing MCE Script
=====================
-DVW, 2012-05-01, svn.r930

In the past, the MCE script tree was checked out directly into
/usr/mce/mce_script (or wherever $MAS_ROOT was pointing).  We now encourage
people to check out MCE script elsewhere and then install a read-only copy
into /usr/mce/mce_script.

To install MCE script, first build it by running:

  make

from the top-level directory (the directory containing this file) and then
install it with

  sudo -E make install

Before installing, you must set the MAS_VAR environment variable to the full
path of the mas_var program installed as part of MAS.  If MAS_VAR isn't defined,
for a standard install, the following should work in bash:

  export MAS_VAR=/usr/mce/bin/mas_var

(The -E in the sudo call prevents sudo from scrubbing your definition of MAS_VAR
from the environment.)

---------------------------------

NOTE: The legacy method of checking out MCE Script directly into
/usr/mce/mce_script still works.  Feel free to keep doing that on existing
installations if you don't want to change.
