<P>
<P>This assumes you have the October 2000 release (version 0.1 or higher) of
<B>partiview</B>, not the earlier "<B>gview</B>" release that was described
in earlier versions of this document.
<H2><A NAME="ss1.1">1.1 MESA/OpenGL</A>
</H2>
<P>First make sure <CODE>Mesa</CODE> is installed, for <CODE>redhat6.2</CODE>
there are rpm files
available. Check if you have the following:
<P>
<BLOCKQUOTE><CODE>
<HR>

<P>now compile (if you really want to) the program, normally a (linux) executable
should be in the <CODE>src</CODE> directory already:

% tar zxf partiview-0.1.tar.gz

<P>and this will come up with a display. You should probably enlarge the

which may be a bit small (certainly on my screen :-)

the log screen (top) and viewing screen (bottom). Type the commands

<P>[spatial units are parsec, angle units are degrees]
<P>Now play with the display, use 't', 'r', 'f' and 'o' keys and use the
left and mouse buttons down to (carefully) move around a bit, and make
yourself comfortable with moving around. Using the 't' button you get
some idea of the distance of the stars by moving back and forth a little
(the parallax trick). In fact, if you 't' around a little bit, you may
see a green line flashing through the display. That is on of the RGB
(xyz) axes atteched to the (0,0,0) [our sun] position. You should see
Procyon and Sirius exhibit pretty large parallaxes, but Orion is pretty
steady. If you move the right mouse button you will zoom in/out and
should see our Sun flash by with the red-green-blue axes.
<P>Try and use the middle mouse button (or the 'p' key) to click on Sirius
or Procyon, and see if you can get it to view its properties. Now use
the 'P' key to switch center to rotation to that star. Sirius is
probably a good choice. Move around a bit, and try and get the sun and orion
in the same view :-)
<P>[NOTE: these Hipparcos data do not have reliably distance above
100-200 pc, so Orion's distances are probably uncertain to 30%]

<P>The point of origin for rotations can be changed with the 'P' button.
First you can try and pick ('p' or button-2) a point, and if found,
hit 'P' to make this point the new rotation center default.

<P>Here is a list of known peculiarities, some of them bugs, others just
features and others limitations, and there is always that class of
things I simply have not understood how it works.
<OL>
<LI> in rotate mode, if you change the center of rotation with 'P',
button-1 works fine, but button-3 does not rotate around the
new point correctly. It seems to remember the old (or 0,0,0)
origin.
