That is really great to hear. I wasn't sure if it was going to be compatible
across Linux systems. The biggest problem that the Linux guys are going to
have are probably having the password to the root account, and making sure
all of the required libraries are present, such as GL, GLU, glut, and
boost_program_options, and that gnuplot is present. The Linux guys are
generally a little more computer savy.  

For the Windows guys, it had to be completely push-button easy, because
there are more and more students using this package in their courses. It's
tough for them to learn how to use Cygwin AND Datcom, what with Datcom being
hard enough itself.

Now, if I could just figure out how to make money giving away free
software....  ;-}
