JOMU is on a distinguished road
Hello,

I just installed SU2 on Windows, but now I am stuck at the very beginning and probably very basic for many people here. I try to follow the guides, but it seems I am not geek enough to understand them...
  • So, after installing my files in C:\Program Files (x86)\SU2, where do I need to add quotes exactly? Do I need to add the quotes at the very beginning and very end as well?
Quote:
NOTE: if the directory name contains white space, the executables may not work without appending ".exe", and the python scripts may not work. Additionally, when setting the enviornment variables and paths, quotes must be added, for example: "C:\Program Files"Stanford ADL"\SU2"
  • I saved the quick start files under D:\SU2\QuickStart. How do I execute them now? Why would SU2 find my files if I just type "SU2_CFD inv_NACA0012.cfg" into cmd.exe?
Quote:
Run the executable by entering "SU2_CFD inv_NACA0012.cfg" at the command line. If you have not set the $SU2_RUN environment variable you will need to run "../bin/SU2_CFD inv_NACA0012.cfg" a the command line.

Sorry for those very beginner questions, but for me, these guides are very hard to understand...
