-===== Setting up the UNIX evironment =====
-If needed, revisit the UNIX tutorial before proceeding.
-Never run Cadence executables from your home directory! Cadence creates many extra files/directories
-that will clutter your home directory.
-Create indeed a main directory ''cadence'' in your home and another subdirectory ''tutorials'' in order to
-keep all the files that will be created:
-Create a main ''~/scratch'' directory if you did not yet
-<code>
-mkdir ~/scratch
-cd  ~/scratch
-mkdir tutorials
-</code>
-<code>
-cd tutorials
-mkdir data doc libs logs models src tmp
-</code>
-Poi per runnare un cadence vanilla basta fare il source di
-<code>
-source /usr/local/config/cds_config/CdsIC_615.rc
-</code>
-You might retrive a ''MANPATH: Undefined variable'' error.
-<code>
-setenv MANPATH ""
-source /usr/local/config/cds_config/CdsIC_615.rc
-</code>
-<code>
-Execute Global CADENCE IC configuration version 6.1.5 HotFix 615
-	Release 13 Jan 2012
-</code>
-<code>
-which virtuoso
-/usr/cadence/IC_6.1.5/tools/dfII/bin/virtuoso
-</code>
-<code>
-xterm &
-</code>
-===== Running Cadence Virtuoso =====
-All Cadence IC executables have been integrated into a single executable called ''virtuoso''.
-To run the Cadence IC framework move into the ''design'' directory and
-<code>
-cd ~/scratch/tutorials
-virtuoso [options] &
-</code>
-at the command line. It's possible to launch ''virtuoso'' with some additional command line options.
-You can retrieve more information about them using:
-<code>
-virtuoso -h [-help]
-</code>
-<code>
-virtuoso [-log ../logs/tutorial_1.log] &
-</code>
-Please, start the task into the background by adding the ampersand symbol **//&//** at the end of the command. In such way
-you will get the command prompt back right away. Otherwise you will no more be able to type commands in the xterm window.
-The software may take some time to load. After the first Cadence splash screen has been shown the **Command Interpreter Window (CIW)** and a **What's New** window will appear.
-{{:vlsi:command_interpreter_window.png?750}}
-Look at the information contained in the log window.
-For more details and documentation about the CIW left click **CIW => Help => Using the CIW**.\\
-The entire Virtuoso platform documentation can be accessed though **CIW => Help => Virtuoso Documentation**
-or entering at the comamnd line
-<code>
-$IC_DIR/tools/cdnshelp/bin/cdnshelp &
-</code>
-{{:vlsi:cadence_ic_615_help.png}}
-===== Quitting the session =====
-To quit the Cadence session left click on
-**CIW => File => Exit... **
-A confirmation dialog box should appear. Left click **OK** to quit Cadence or **Cancel** to resume.
-{{:vlsi:exit_virtuoso.png}}
-A **Save All** window may appear. Left click **OK** to save design data.
-===== Licenses =====
-You can view the list of Cadence licensed tools within Cadence itself from the Command Interpreter Window (CIW),
-simply look in
-**CIW => Options => License...**
-===== Available licenses =====
-a tiered architecture (L/Xl/GXL), se viene checked-out a higher license automaticamente sono licenziati anche i tools inferiori
-All Cadence software requires Cadence licenses!
-Tutto e' sotto licenza! E c'e' un PC che fa solo da **license server**
-You can use the Software Product License Management form to track token license activity.
-**CIW => Options => License ...**
-You can check the state of the licence server or the number of available licences
-if you run into trouble opening a program.
-The lmstat command can be used to track token license activity from the command line
-<code>
-lmstat [-help]
-</code>
-To view the number of available licences for each program,
-<code>
-lmstat -a
-</code>
-''CDS_LIC_FILE'' => punta al server
-''LM_LIC_FILE''
