Actually, the START_AIPS script should have a setting of this variable
after the initial comments.  Try looking at that file, or HOSTS.SH or 
several others all of which should contain a local setting of $AIPS_ROOT.

cd to your AIPS_ROOT area

copy from $SYSUNIX the script AIPSROOT.DEFINE
execute it while in the AIPS_ROOT area - it will edit all needed scripts 
for the AIPS_ROOT
