Hi , i am getting this error during making directory named piyush . what to do now ?

Right now you have the first directory selected which is a system directory that you don’t have write access to. Try selecting the a directory you have write access to first. (Use

..

to navigate). Remember to add your new directory to the xschem search path.

Good point to improve the error reporting. WIll fix that.

how to do this can you tell me the steps ? @Mitch Bailey

Do you have these lines in you

xschemrc

file?

set XSCHEM_LIBRARY_PATH {}
#### include devices/*.sym
append XSCHEM_LIBRARY_PATH ${XSCHEM_SHAREDIR}/xschem_library
#### include skywater libraries. Here i use [pwd]. This works if i start xschem from here.
append XSCHEM_LIBRARY_PATH :$env(PWD)
append XSCHEM_LIBRARY_PATH :$PDKPATH/libs.tech/xschem
