Search path is the list of directories where your shell is looking for executables/programs. I don't know, where you've unzipped the archive, let's say it was /opt/Software/FSLeyes. In the terminal you could either call /opt/Software/FSLeyes/fsleyes (calling with the full path) or you could extend you PATH variable: export PATH=/opt/Software/FSLeyes:$PATH   Now your shell is prepared to find fsleyes like it finds fslview. If you add the following two lines to your ~/.bashrc file you don't have to prepare your shell everytime you want to work with fsleyes:

PATH=/opt/Software/FSLeyes
export PATH

Of course you always have to replace "/opt/Software/FSLeyes" with the directory where your fsleyes has been extracted to.

Thanks. Sorry but I am not sure what you mean by search path?

I am working via the terminal. I cannot open using the full path because it reads as a directory and so will not open. 

Should I not be able to call it by typing 'fsleyes' similar to fslview without having to move to it directory location?

Thanks.

Hi,

sounds like fsleyes isn't in your search path. Try calling it with the full path or add the location where you've unpacked it to your search path.

Hi, 

I have downloaded fsleyes and unzipped in my location of choice (fsl directory).

Fsleyes will open when I double click the icon but I cannot get it to open in the command line as I previously done with fslview e.g:

$ fsleyes /usr/local/fsl/data/standard/MNI152_T1_2mm.nii.gz caudate_individual.nii.gz

However, I get the following message:

-bash: fsleyes: command not found

I am using a macbook air with Sierra OS. 

Any ideas?

Thanks.
