There is a program in a batch file that took me a minute to find that I needed. Once I read the error message and went through the batch script it became obvious.

export WIND_BASE=$(realpath "$WIND_BASE")

realpath had to be apt-get installed.

Then there is replacing /path/to

/home/paul but that is because I am stupid.

Thanks for the hard work.
Yes. It should have been mentioned that `realpath' is a dependency of all of the scripts in here. If anybody is on OSX or something, or just wants a minimal realpath implementation, I've forked one on my github and made some changes to the build system for it.
