LuminousY,

Is your .bash_profile including the fwtools_env.sh using
the "." command?  What error message do you get?

The fwtools environment does not set anything allowing
builds against the FWTools libraries or using the FWTools
include files.  To do that you will need to explicitly use
the -I and -L/-l directives in your build.

Best regards,
