Sorry about that. I just found one thread that gave suggestions on using
shell variables or arguments to configure expressing the location of the

I decided to try and compile it because it is not updating on realtime,
with realtime selected. Is this a known bug?
I am running redhat's limbo, so if it has not been seen anywhere else,
it might be just me.
