Condor is installed on most of the clustered compute machines.  On older machines you may need to source either /usr/local/condor/condor.sh or /usr/local/condor/condor.csh to add the condor variables and binary locations to your shell environment, if the condor_q or condor_submit files are not in your path already.

Code Block
FLOCK_FROM condor.ece.cmu.edu
