Writing code and running code

[Edwardsimm]

Hi,

I hope someone can help me - I am new so i am not sure if i am doing it correctly.

I am encountering a few problems regarding Opensees.exe. firstly where do I write my tcl scripts, in opensees?

secondly, I am trying to run tcl scripts in my Opensees.exe using the source function, but all i get is

"couldn't read file "EiganAnal.twoStoreyFrame.tcl": no such file or directory child process exited abnormally"

I have placed the file in the same folder as the Opensees.exe and still nothing appears to happen.

I hope someone can help me.

Kindest regards,

Edward.

a file editor such as notepad on windows.

when you start OpenSees type "pwd" to see what directory the application starts in .. use the cd command to get to the directory the file is in before you source it.
