Please guys, have patience. I started with Linux last July. I use a dual boot machines: one at work and one at home. I just haven't had the time to *carefully* read HOWTOs on networking stuff. But let me say what I have done: 1) I ported a program I wrote in Borland DOS C program to Linux. I use this program at work. Had to learn some peculiarities of C in Linux. Had to learn some BASH. All this takes some time. Still learning. I have recently learned something about Python. I wrote a Python script as a front end to another program I use at work. Now, the technician can run the plotting program (which runs under NT) to see the data in finalized form. If I find a good scientific plotting program that runs under Linux, I will immediately trash NT and Win98. Sorry to be still using Win98/Netscape for e-mail, but I'll get there. I promise.
Maybe I should apologize for my response to the M$ Intruders post. It was meant to be sarcastic but people seem to be taking it personally. I have tried to be helpful to those people on this list who are having trouble trying to get various functions of Linux working. I did not mean to scare off people using M$ to post. How can we (the list) help you guys to get Linux fully functional? In reference to your plotting program, go to freshmeat.net and search for "scientific plotting" and see what you can come up with. -- Bob F EMail FBob@wt.net A Truly Wise Man Never Plays Leapfrog With A Unicorn... -- To unsubscribe send e-mail to suse-linux-e-unsubscribe@suse.com For additional commands send e-mail to suse-linux-e-help@suse.com Also check the FAQ at http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/
