This allows pausing, stopping and starting the setiathome client and displays a history of your largest spikes, gaussians, triplets etc. and also gives you an equatorial sky map showing all the regions you have processed and the location of spikes etc. what have you. Setiathome supplies xsetiathome, which may be similar. Presumably you have a link for that. AFAIK you need a setiathome directory under /home/user for the current workfiles and the binary installed somewhere in your PATH. Hope this isn't too patronizing. While you are looking to use spare cpu cycles you might consider the protein folding project at Stanford University, which has the probable advantage of being more useful in the long run. I think it was Joe Hill who originally recommended that. Will repost the link if you are interested. -- Len Lawrence ---------------------------------------------------------- The two things that can get you into trouble quicker than anything else are fast women and slow horses. ----------------------------------------------------------
