    Hi Martin,

    All I have us <PVSinstDir>/bin or <PVEinstDir>/bin in my UNIX path (so I can type "which pvs" and it returns the pvs executable). No special environment variables needed.

    Then (if in IC616) I use Launch->Plugins->PVS (in the layout window) to add the PVS menus. In IC615 it's  Launch->PVS.

    Which IC version are you using (Help->About in the CIW, and which PVS version (type "pvs -version" in a UNIX window)?

    Regards,

    Andrew.
