1. Linux GraphApp SVGAlib etc

Just some question on Linux Apps.

Irv,

        Thought I would give your GraphApp Port a try.  I am receiving a
message stating DISPLAY variable not set, couldn't start X.  What value
should the DISPLAY variable be set to?

Pete,

        When I try to execute fractal.ex or sphere.ex I receive the following
message:
    Linear addressing mode required.
        I have and S3 Trio64+ 2 MB video card, if that is of any help.

All,
        I am not sure if this has been discussed on here before, I could not
remember.  If you use the echo -e "\\033(U" line in your profile, to
print the pc style lines.  You need to modify graphics.e so that it does
not change the color Constants, other wise strange things happen, like
the BRIGHT_RED and BRIGHT_BLUE being swapped, perhaps some others as
well.

Thanks In Advance,

Running an X windows app from the command line won't work. It's just like
trying to run a windows program from the C:> prompt. without typing "WIN".

First you must start the X server, which is done by typing startx.
Then, using an xterminal, you can change to the correct directory, and type exu
program.name. Depending on the window manager you chose, you can also set up
buttons or icons or menu selections to run Euphoria programs.
