		<summary type="html">&lt;p&gt;New page: The environment variable settings for a legacy sandbox do not conflict with the current build system.  The legacy build system used &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;$G&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; as the location of either a private sandbox or ...&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;New page&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div&gt;The environment variable settings for a legacy sandbox do not conflict with the current build system.  The legacy build system used &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;$G&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; as the location of either a private sandbox or a public work area containing all software.  The current build system added the &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;GTO&amp;#039;&amp;#039; variable to designate where software developed at Brown is installed and &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;G_IMPORT&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; for third party software packages.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Most legacy software development was done in the &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;/research/graphics/tools/linux&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; directory and &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;G&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; was set to it.  After setting up a legacy sandbox the directories under $G should be:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
   WIN32/                Legacy Windows utilities.&lt;br /&gt;
   bin/                  Legacy installed programs.&lt;br /&gt;
   lib/                  Legacy installed libraries.&lt;br /&gt;
   src/                  Legacy source code checked out from CVS.&lt;br /&gt;
   help/                 Legacy help information.&lt;br /&gt;
   tools/                Legacy administrative tools.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Software installed using the current system can be in a separate private sandbox designated by the &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;GTO&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; variable.  In this case the private sandbox contains:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
   install_linux/        Installed copies of Linux software developed at Brown.&lt;br /&gt;
   install_WIN32/        Installed copies of Windows software developed at Brown.&lt;br /&gt;
   install_OSX/          Installed copies of Windows software developed at Brown.&lt;br /&gt;
   common/               The most recent common code checked out from CVS.&lt;br /&gt;
   project/              An empty directory for your project code.&lt;/div&gt;</summary>
