You need to be running tcsh or csh to use setenv as explained in the setup page: https://surfer.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/fswiki/SetupConfiguration

Dear Freesurfer users

I am starting to work with Freesurfer, but I have no experience with Unix. For the installation example in the documentation, there is the command:

setenv FREESURFER_HOME /usr/local/freesurfer

but this command (setenv) could not be found. What happens? What is FREESURFER_HOME? A directory, a file or something else?

Thanks for help in advance Best regards Juergen
