If you use the Terminal window, you should add some entries to your login script (.login, for csh) so that certain environment variables are always set. An example of this is contained in /Applications/Sybase/System/SYBASE.csh. If you do not have a .login script in your home directory, you can use the .cshrc file (if you are using .csh). Typically, user accounts to not contain either of these by default; in that case, you must create one. If you do not, the login daemon looks to /etc/csh.login and /etc/csh.cshrc.
