Hi,
I've installed singular but when I type "./Singular" I get the error: "cannot execute binary file".

Could you tell what's wrong?

Thanks in advance,
HV

We don't kown which binary version of Singular you are using
and on what kind of machine you are working.

But as you write, that you entered that ./Singular,
I suppose that you have a Unix/Linux system.

So entering ./Singular supposes that
you are at this moment in the directory where
the Singular-binary is located. Is this the case?

Type ls -l

If you see the Singualar file there, then check whether
it is executeable. This means that the x flags are set.

If not, then enter chmod a+x Singular and
enter ./Singular again.

Note, usually it should be enough just to call Singular
from everywhere, provided you have set properly the variables
$PATH$ (and $SINGULARPATH)$ ( for instance in .bash_login)

Consult for PATH
http://www.singular.uni-kl.de/UNIX/generic_install.html

and for SINGULARPATH

Hope that helps
