Hello --
I've just installed Icon on FreeBSD-6.0
That would be Icon 9.4.3
As I understand it, Icon should work with X-Windows. However,
I can't seem to get it to work.
I've seen some incantations such as
$include graphics
on some source files.
The examples on the Icon Programming Language 3rd ed. don't work
if you simply cut-and-paste, for expample:
$define Width 500
$define Height 300
$define Range 25
$define Min 9
$define Iter 25
WOpen("size=" || Width || "," || Height)
every 1 to Iter do
DrawCircle(?Width, ?Height, ?Range + Min)
every 1 to Iter do
FillCircle(?Width, ?Height, ?Range + Min)
This is an url that has some incantations to get Icon graphics demos
on Debian sarge
http://angg.twu.net/e/icon.e.html#icon-sarge-source
but they also are written in something called e-scripts, so they're hard
to understand.
Does anyone have any tips or experiences they would like to share on
getting Icon graphics running on FreeBSD, Linux (or any other Unix)?
TIA,
Seth
