In order to run this tutorial properly, you must alter
your .mailcap and
.mime.types files so that the
viewer knows what to do with the XPP files that are used in
the tutorial. If you already have these files in your home directory,
just add the lines in the two files to your existing ones. You also
must be able to run XPP on your local machine. The command to
call XPP must be xpp (The default compiled version
is xppaut thus, you should make a link to that called xpp
or just change it's name. Or, just change the xpp in
the .mime.types and .mailcap files to
xppaut .)
Since this tutorial takes a long time to run you might want to try it locally rather than over the network. In that case, get the compressed tarred files put them in a directory, uncompress and untar them. Then load index.html into your viewer.
Just ftp the program from ftp.math.pitt.edu/pub/bardware and pick up xppaut1.x.tar.Z and f2clibs.tar.Z or just pick up the binary for your computer and the documentation, xpp_doc.ps.Z
