Is there a Computer Graphics Metafile display program for X? I tried looking
on expo, but I might have missed it.
Thanks,

The Pittsburgh Supercomputer Centre has a program called gplot which translates cgm files to many output formats and/or window systems including PostScript, Tek4xxx, SunView, SGI Iris GL, X, etc ... It runs under UNIX and VMS. Sources are available from calpe.psc.edu (128.182.66.148). Hopefully, someone else can help you retrieve a copy. -- Igor Metz Institut fuer Informatik und angew.

I was wondering if there is a way to use a different rgb.dir. The problem is we are running R3 on some Vaxstations, and R4 on Suns. I would like to use a new rgb.dir AFTER X has already been started (Since our system uses xdm). Is there a way to reinstall a new rgb file after X has already started ?

From all of my own search, I did not find a way to change the rgb once the server is running. Can someone prove me wrong? - Victoria

>>>Is there a Computer Graphics Metafile display program for X? I tried looking >>>on expo, but I might have missed it. NCAR is now has an X previewer. They have two programs that do metafiles on X. They are "idt" and "ctrans", or "ftrans". There may be come differences between NCAR and standard metafiles though. NCAR Graphics on X is a lot faster than over 9600 Baud lines, by the way. -------- john kemp ( ( )_ internet - kemp@uiatma.atmos.uiuc.edu ----- ( ( __) decnet - uiatmb::kemp --- univ of illinois (_ ( __) bitnet - {uunet,convex} -- dept of atmos sci .(____). !uiucuxc!uiatma!kemp - 105 s gregory ave ... phone - (217) 333-6881 - urbana, il 61801 ... fax - (217) 444-4393
