Setting up runtime environment

The following runtime script can be used. Please replace with your own search paths:

#!/bin/bash
#
# OCTAVE runtime environment script for Nordugrid ARC
#
# Runtime environment scripts are called (bash source)
#   from NorduGrid ARC with argument 0,1 or 2.
# First call with argument "0" is made before the the batch
#   job submission script is written.
# Second call is made with argument "1" just prior to execution of the
#   user specified executable.
# Third "clean-up" call is made with argument "2" after the user
#   specified executable has returned.
