Hi Frank...
Glad to hear it's working for you. If you're running Linux on an Intel
machine, I've also created a 'quick install' for that (assuming that
OpenGL has already been installed).
Download this file:
http://www.ssec.wisc.edu/~tomw/visadtutor/jyvis_linux.tar.gz
to the desired directory and then gunzip/untar it -- it will create a
"jython" directory an put all the files there (including the Java
runtime, Java3D, visad.jar, jython.jar, and several startup scripts for
you). This is a pretty new thing (I've only tested it on a handful of
machines here), so I'm interested in any feedback.
(One really annoying thing in Linux: when you're using the command line
interpreter, the up- and down-arrows do _not_ give you history...they
just give you things like "[[A". I've included a script to invoke the
Console.py from the Jython release, plus you can use Curtis' editor as
well (jye) -- just as in the windoz world.)
