Actually I am a journalist and my aim is to download and run (or try to) SocNetV to map social networks. On the download page of SocNetV, I am directed to Fink. I have installed Fink and now... what? I find myself in an environment that is obviously beyond my technical knowledge. I went through the FAQ and tutorials, everything is very developer oriented and I just don't understand the language. My question: is there a simple way to install and run SocNetV via Fink and if yes, how? Thanks a lot for any support, (or any suggestion about free or share network mapping soft. I have installed Graphviz, but again, I have no clue about how to use it, they have no FAQ, no manual, no instruction even to start...) Best, MichelWe take no responsibility for what other websites say to do. :-) You might suggest to the webmaster there that if they say to "Use Fink", that it would be useful to include some information about what to do to get their package installed, and how to run it. If you have Fink installed, as well as Xcode, then the following commands from the command line will install socnetv: 1) fink configure after you do that, then when asked if you want to use unstable packages, say Y 2) fink selfupdate-rsync - -or- fink selfupdate-cvs These commands will download current package descriptions for you. After running one or the other, you can use 'fink selfupdate' when you need to update. 3) fink install socnetv That will install a bunch of stuff that socnetv needs, as well as socnet itself. If you're on OS 10.4 you'll need to start X11 before step 4--otherwise just move on. 4) Then to run it, just type socnetv in a terminal window. This package doesn't happen to build a Mac-style application bundle.Quick addition, there is a variant of this package called socnetv-mac, which does install a clickable .app into /Applications/Fink. So in Alex's directions above, just replace 'socnetv' with socnetv-mac in step 3 if you wish to have an application that more closely works like other Mac applications.Hanspeter ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ The Palm PDK Hot Apps Program offers developers who use the Plug-In Development Kit to bring their C/C++ apps to Palm for a share of $1 Million in cash or HP Products.
