Mark,
Maybe I'm missing something with what you are doing with the online docs,
but why not just run it directly without going through Synopsys. This
method does not use the license at all. Here is what I do to start the
online documentation:
#!/bin/csh
setenv XFILESEARCHPATH .
pushd /3rdpty/synopsys_online_doc/worldview
bin/iview
popd
I run this script & the online docs startup. I've also changed the startup
points so that the synthesis page starts instead of the online doc page.
