Hello, there was already a discussion of how to call ROOT from Netscape and Valery Fine gave a recipe of how to do it on Windows. Here is a UNIX equivalent: - from Options->General menu you tell Netscape about your personal Types file (the default is ~/.mime.types) and your personal Mailcap file (the default is ~/.mailcap) - you create .mime.types with just one line (or add this line ot the existing file): ---------- ~/.mime.types type=application/root exts=C icon=internal-gopher-image -------------- - then you add one more line to your .mailcap file (which is created by Netscape by default on UNIX): application/root; root %.s and this is it. By clicking on .C (which is supposed to be a ROOT macro in this example) you now ask root to execute this macro. this could provide a good and reliable way to maintain plots etc...especially for large collaborations. Thanks go to George Velev (CDF) who told me about the existence of personal Types file. There was one thing which I failed to do though, namely to tell Netscape to run TBrowser on a .root file... Any suggestions? Regards, Pasha.
