Hi, I’m unable to find the complete documentation for setting up the command line. At this time, I have completed the following:

1. installed JuliaPro

2. adding the following environment variables to my .profile

3. using the command line

I see the following error in the terminal:

```julia
      ERROR: could not load library "/Applications/JuliaPro-0.6.2.2.app/../lib/julia/sys.dylib"
dlopen(/Applications/JuliaPro-0.6.2.2.app/../lib/julia/sys.dylib, 6): image not found

```

Hi, I was able to resolve the issue by doing the following:

```julia
export JULIA_HOME=/Applications/JuliaPro-0.6.2.2.app
export JULIA_RESOURCES_HOME=${JULIA_HOME}/Contents/Resources/julia/Contents/Resources
export PATH=${JULIA_RESOURCES_HOME}/julia/bin:${PATH}
export DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH=${JULIA_RESOURCES_HOME}/julia/lib:${DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH}
export DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH=${JULIA_RESOURCES_HOME}/julia/lib/julia:${DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH}

```

However, I would like to verify the above setup with actual Julia or JuliaPro documentation.

Hi, thanks for the reply but this doesn’t seem to be an active repository at all. After reading through the various [Github.com](http://Github.com) repositories and sites, I have come to this conclusion:

- Julia Pro from [https://juliacomputing.com/products/juliapro.html](https://juliacomputing.com/products/juliapro.html) is focused on the IDE experience

- Julia from [Download Julia](https://julialang.org/downloads) is focused on the command line experience

I’ll add this to my list of questions for when I see Mike Inness on Tuesday at the upcoming Julia Meetup.

It is my impression that they created the repo just for issues. It is true that you would open the first one.

For IDE alternatives, see [VS Code](https://discourse.julialang.org/t/vs-code-is-excellent/6381) ([release info](https://discourse.julialang.org/t/vs-code-extension-v0-9-released/8067)) and Atom/[Juno](http://junolab.org/).

For anyone using Modules, my module file for Julia is  
Note JULIA\_LOAD\_PATH

```julia
#%Module1.0#######################################################################
## hwloc modulefile
##
proc ModulesHelp { } {

        puts stderr "\tAdds the Julia language to your environment"
}

module-whatis "Adds Julia to your environment"

set ROOT /hpc/data/hpc-team/jhearns/julia-d386e40c17

setenv JULIA_HOME $ROOT/bin
setenv JULIA_PKGDIR $ROOT/.julia
setenv JULIA_HISTORY $ROOT/.julia_history
setenv JULIA_LOAD_PATH $ROOT/lib/julia

prepend-path PATH $ROOT/bin

```
