log in?

Basically all you need to know to log in is where the database resides and what your username and password are on that database. Given this information, you simply issue the command:

xlincks database-dir

where you replace ``database-dir'' with the directory path to the database files. Then type in your username and password at the prompt.

There are also further command-line options.  These are:

Finally, if you use only one database on a regular basis, you can set the environment variable LINCKSDBDIR  where you normally set environment variables (~/.cshrc) to the appropriate directory and start xlincks without any arguments at all.

setenv LINCKSDBDIR /some/path/to/the/db/directory
