Starting Lizard

Assuming you have set up correctly, your $PATH should now include the ${LHCXX_REL_DIR}/bin directory. So if you type lizard Lizard will start up. Because it consists of a series of modules loaded into Python, as opposed to a single application, it may take some time to start up (depending on your machine, of course.) Starting it again later is much quicker as the libraries are already loaded. The lizard command has several command-line options. Type lizard --help to see them. The most important one is --noLicense. This ensures that you load only the license-free libraries if you can't/don't want to use ObjectivityDB and/or NagC.

Lizard (and all the other Python stuff it needs) lives in ${LHCXX_REL_DIR}/python. In fact, the lizard command is just a link to ${LHCXX_REL_DIR}/python/bin/startLizard.sh.

To get help on lizard commands (which means the AIDA interfaces and the Python "shortcut" functions) type help()
