Date: Mon, 6 Mar 1995 17:09:30 +0200 From: Lars Wirzenius <wirzeniu@cc.helsinki.fi> To: linux-activists@niksula.hut.fi, linux-announce@vger.rutgers.edu X-Mn-Key: announce Newsgroups: comp.graphics,comp.graphics.visualization,comp.windows.x.apps,comp.os.linux.announce,comp.sys.sgi.graphics,comp.sys.sgi.apps,comp.sys.hp.apps,comp.sys.sun.apps,comp.sys.dec From: software@geom.umn.edu (software) Subject: Geomview: An Interactive 3D Geometry Viewer Keywords: geometry 3D interactive graphics Organization: The Geometry Center, University of Minnesota Approved: linux-announce@news.ornl.gov (Lars Wirzenius) Followup-to: comp.graphics ===================== Geomview, version 1.5 ===================== The Geometry Center announces the availability of release 1.5 of Geomview. Geomview is an interactive viewer for 3-D geometric objects. It allows users to view and manipulate these objects via the mouse, the keyboard, and through an interpreted command language. This release includes versions for SGI (using GL graphics), NeXTStep (requires NeXTStep version 3.0 or higher), and generic Xlib graphics. Precompiled binaries are available for SGI, NeXT (m68k/intel/hppa), Sun4, HP, Linux, IBM RS/6000 and DEC Alpha platforms. The source code is also available. These distributions are all in the pub/software/geomview directory for anonymous ftp from ftp.geom.umn.edu. For more details, and for a list of changes since previous releases of Geomview, see the README file in that same directory. Geomview is part of an effort at the Geometry Center to provide interactive 3D graphics which is well-suited for mathematics visualization. In addition, Geomview is extensible and can serve as a general-purpose tool. Its functionality can be extended in an almost unlimited fashion by external modules or programs. Sun OpenWindows Users: you must get the patch file "geomview-1.5.0-sun4-patch1.tar.Z" in addition to the distribution itself. (OpenWindows will crash without this patch.) See the README file in pub/software/geomview for details. If you want more information about Geomview without having to download an entire distribution, point your Web browser at: http://www.geom.umn.edu/software/download/geomview.html NOTE: The Geomview development team has very limited resources. We read all mail sent to our support address (software@geom.umn.edu), and we try to act on reports of serious problems, but we may not be able to respond to each message individually. -- Send submissions for comp.os.linux.announce to: linux-announce@news.ornl.gov PLEASE remember Keywords: and a short description of the software.
