7.  Finally, setup the environment variables:



        #Execute the ISIS variable initialization script with default arguments.

        #This script prepares default values for:  $ISISROOT, $ISISDATA, $ISISTESTDATA

    To use the default values for: `$ISISROOT, $ISISDATA, $ISISTESTDATA`, run the ISIS variable initialization script with default arguments.



        python $CONDA_PREFIX/scripts/isisVarInit.py

    To do this, for versions of ISIS 4.2.0 and earlier, use: 



        python $CONDA_PREFIX/scripts/isis3VarInit.py



    For versions of ISIS after 4.2.0, use:



        python $CONDA_PREFIX/scripts/isisVarInit.py



    Executing this script with no arguments will result in $ISISDATA=$CONDA\_PREFIX/data, and $ISISTESTDATA=$CONDA\_PREFIX/testdata. The user can specify different directories for both of these optional values:



        python $CONDA_PREFIX/scripts/isisVarInit.py --data-dir=[path to data directory]  --test-dir=[path to test data directory]

    For ISIS 4.2.0 and earlier, use: 



        python $CONDA_PREFIX/scripts/isis3VarInit.py --data-dir=[path to data directory]  --test-dir=[path to test data directory]



    For versions of ISIS after 4.2.0, use: 



        python $CONDA_PREFIX/scripts/isisVarInit.py --data-dir=[path to data directory]  --test-dir=[path to test data directory]



    More information about the ISISDATA environment variable and the ISIS Data Area can be found [here]("#The-ISIS-Data-Area"). Now everytime the isis environment is activated, $ISISROOT, $ISISDATA, and $ISISTESTDATA will be set to the values passed to isisVarInit.py. This does not happen retroactively, so re-activate the isis envionment with one of the following commands:
