after instalation SML/NJ - No command 'sml' found on ubuntu 12.04 at terminal

Question

I've added meteorhacks:npm and included some packages in the packages.json file. Note the 's' on the end of packages, as this is needed by meteorhacks:npm.

Everything works for me but when I push to Git and the rest of the team pulls, they are unable to install the npm modules.

Because the json file is called packages.json they can't simply run npm install without renaming the packages.json file.

Is there some simple way they can install all the dependencies listed in the packages.json as well as the .meteor/packages

Solution

If sml is in /usr/local/SML directory, you should use it's relative path:

cd /usr/local/SML/bin
./sml

or absolute path:

/usr/local/SML/bin/sml

Or add /usr/local/SML/bin directory to your PATH.

I did this about ./sml it shows bash: ./sml: No such file or directory. But about adding this to my path. At this tutorial they didn't write nothing necessary about this, and this is their main site http://www.smlnj.org. What do you thisnk about this?

@What is the output of ls -l /usr/local/SML/ command? As you can see there is no sml file there.

I updated question. But sml at console should open the SML console - Standard ML of New Jersey v110.75 [built: ...] and open SML console, you can type 1 + 1; + Enter. the SML interpreter should print something like this: val it = 2 : int. To exit the interpreter, type Control-D.

@nazar_art Have you read smlnj.org/dist/working/110.75/NOTES/INSTALL ? There is a section: 2.5. What needs to be on my PATH? Also, I edited my answer.
