The latest stable releases of SciGraphica can be found at the SciGraphica section on SourceForge, http://sourceforge.net/projects/scigraphica/. Here you can find the sources to SciGraphica and gtk+extra, as well as binaries for a number of Linux distributions.
For the very latest in bleeding edge you can access the CVS repository with the following commands:
cvs -d:pserver:anonymous@cvs.scigraphica.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/scigraphica login |
just press Enter for the password, then download the sourcetree with:
cvs -z3 -d:pserver:anonymous@cvs.scigraphica.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/scigraphica co sg |
which will download the entire sg sourcetree. To update your local copy use the same process.
Assuming you've installed Scigraphica from source or rpm you should just need to type
scigraphica (formerly sga) |
and SciGraphica will start.
Some themes for GTK are quite slow to redraw. Try changing your theme and see if the problem goes away. Using some themes it can take many seconds to redraw a plot window, with others it's all but instantaneous. Being slightly less pretty could increase your workrate a lot ;0).
