Hi Bruno,

Make certain you have the bash shell configured rather than Microsfot's
Powershell.

If you always want them set and always to the same value. Otherwise, do
what I do and define convenience aliases in your .bashrc.

alias gdk='export GS_HOME=/c/GsDevKit_home; export PATH=$GS_HOME/bin:$PATH;
cd $GS_HOME'
alias gdh='cd $GS_HOME'

The client needs the Windows DLLs for the GCI library. This command
downloads the Windows subset of the GemStone product. (gslist, topaz, the
DLLs, etc.)
