[Gate-users] Unable to run Gate; Halp

[Robert Wilson]

Woo hoo! Finally got it to work! Thanks so much for everyone's help. I'm
sure I'll be writing again soon as I get further into the program itself.
But for now I'm hoping that the user manual will be straight forward enough
to follow on my own for a while.
Again, many thanks and best wishes.

All the best,
