Hi @Stefan Schippers , I think that I have some problems launching the xschem application. So I git cloned this repo https://github.com/StefanSchippers/xschem and followed instructions there to compile and install the xschem. But when I tried to run from source, it did not pop up any interfaces. Are there any methods to solve the problem? Thank you.

Sihan, looks like you may be trying to run inside a docker container?
xschem
uses the X window manager so make sure you can run X applications in your current environment. Try something simple like
xeyes
or
xterm
first. If you can't, you'll need to look into how to get those running.

Yes, I'm running inside a container. I will have a try to run X applications. Thank you very much.

Yes, as suggested above try first to run a simple X application, like xclock.
If xschem runs in console only mode it means the DISPLAY environmental variable is not set. This means no X11 graphic server is configured on the system.
