(A) Setting Up Your Environment to Run Amira

1. Amira can currently only be run from jane, so you will first need to ssh to jane:

$ ssh -Y jane.crbs.ucsd.edu

2. Start Amira:

$ /ncmir/local.linux.amd64/Amira-5.4/bin/start

If you want, you can setup your login script to alias this command to the command 'amira'. To do this, add the following line to your .bashrc file by editing it in a text editor (vi, emacs, nano, etc.):

$ alias amira='/ncmir/local.linux.amd64/Amira-5.4/bin/start'
