    External Viewer?

    Are there any plans for an external view to view islands? Sure would be nice to be able to view my island on my linux box (no monitor) with my main PC.

    I haven't lost my mind; it's backed up on tape drive somewhere.

    Other than running an xserver on the windows box (or perhaps using vpn), I don't know how.

    If you have apache running on the linux box, you might be able to grab the output to the console, parse it, and serve it up as a web page.

    Hmm, that would be a fun mini-project ...

    If your desktop gets out of control easily,
    you probably have too much stuff on it that
    doesn't need to be there.

    Whoops, I may have misunderstood your question ... I was assuming that your main box was Windows. What is your main box, and how do you normally launch the program on the linux box?

    What do you want?

    This applies to everyone, what would you like to see about your island?

    a. Fitness Graphs?
    b. Circuit diagrams for each member of the population?
    c. A plot with all individuals in it changing through time with some sort of thumbnail view of the circuit?
    d. A plot of the history of individuals, their genealogy, and where they came from if they're migrants?
    e. A world map showing where all islands are and which are connected to which in the island topology? And how fit their populations are?
    f. A facility to save individuals, edit them and then send them to other islands?
    g. Facility to chat with neighbouring island owners?
    h. Graph of your computing effort rate and how you're doing in stats?

    Magnavox,
    You'll need X-Windows on your Linux box and then log in using a windows X-Windows client, or something like VNC.
