[scilab-Users] Error message at startup

[Antony Galea]

Hi.

Make sure that the file exists, has the correct persmissions (it may need to be set
executable - refer to the installation documents), is in the right place and that
your path is set correctly.

Try grepping PATH and scilab.star from README, INSTALL and other similiar documentation
files for a quick start.

Good luck,
Antony Galea
