128		  <p>The SDK provides an implicit configuration mechanism, which
129		  configures the SDK build environment to your personal needs the first
130		  time you use the SDK environment. This configuration step creates one or
131		  two new setsdkenv_XXX scripts in the user's home directory:</P>
132		  <ul>
133		    <li><b>$HOME/$OO_SDK_NAME/setsdkenv_unix.sh</b> and <b>$HOME/$OO_SDK_NAME/setsdkenv_unix.csh</b>&nbsp;&nbsp;-> for Unix

135          </ul>
136		  <p>The automatically started configure script (Unix and Windows2000/XP)
137		  requests relevant information and directories (SDK, the Office, GNU make,
138		  Java, C++), in order to prepare a working SDK environment. After completing the
139		  configure script once, the newly created script is always used to set the
140		  necessary environment variables for using the SDK and the required
141		  tools.</P>
142		  <p>On UNIX operating systems, the configure script uses Perl. LINUX systems should have
143		  installed a working Perl version, and on Solaris you can find a working
144		  Perl version under <a target="_blank" href="http://www.sunfreeware.com/" title="link to www.sunfreeware.com (online)">http://www.sunfreeware.com/</a> if
145		  necessary. On Windows, the configure script uses Windows Script and
146		  a JScipt. If you have problems with Windows Script, you can download a
147		  newer version of <a href ="http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=C717D943-7E4B-4622-86EB-95A22B832CAA&displaylang=en" link"link to the download page for the Windows Script">Windows Script</a>.

149          <p>On other versions of Windows, use the batch
150		  file template <b>&lt;OO_SDK_HOME&gt;\setsdkenv_windows.template</b>,
151		  rename it to *.bat, and adapt it to your local environment.</p>
