Hi All: I think I figured out that the file setup.py was an install script... I am using Anaconda3 as my python (it is properly referenced to the python command)

(base) patti@linux-lhkc:~/anaconda3> python3 setup.py install --prefix=~/.local
  File "setup.py", line 7
    <!DOCTYPE html>
    ^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax
(base) patti@linux-lhkc:~/anaconda3>

Oops!! MY BAD! I figured out that I was intended to download the zipive of the distro, then run setup.py from the download directory... Problem is jupyter doesn't seem to know where the gdl server is. But it also sort of does...

~/Desktop/ISOs/00_IDL/gdl_kernel-master> jupyter kernelspec list
Available kernels:
  gdl        /home/patti/.local/share/jupyter/kernels/GDL
  python3    /home/patti/anaconda3/share/jupyter/kernels/python3
  python2    /usr/share/jupyter/kernels/python2
~/Desktop/ISOs/00_IDL/gdl_kernel-master>

The GDL kernel does appear in the jupyter drop-down list of kernels, but fails to start...

Looking at the traceback and the gdl_kernel.py:

gdl_kernel/gdl_kernel.py

Line 68 in ac8edcb

self._executable = find_executable("gdl")

this means that gdl executable cannot be found by Python. One way or another, you need to ensure that find_executable("gdl") works from within Jupyter.

Thank you very much for looking at that output and giving feedback. Do you mean find_executable() needs to work in Python? (within jupyter)
