Sherrod,

You should probably pick up a basic primer book on Unix if you need to 
do any significant work on a Unix-based platform.

Your current problem is caused by the fact that "xep.sh" is not on your 
shell's path. To run without having xep on your path, you will need to 
"cd" to the XEP directory and then type
"./xep.sh -help"
