[scilab-Users] SOS: Version with Xcos usable for academic teaching??

[Nick Rudnick]

Thank you, Ray,

this is a hint :-) -- but are you speaking about the problem

(a) the impossibility saving with SUM/PROD,

(b) the impossibility of dragging blocks out of the Palette browser,

i.e. are you speaking about the current release 5.2.2 or a nightly build 
(which one)?

I already tried your proposal at some of our systems, without success so 
far -- the nightly build is still missing, and I would be very pleased 
if there is a solution. As it requires GLIBC_2.11, which is not 
supported by my distro, I will get another one running and try out.

Hopefully, more people will reply to my request in the meantime.


All the best,

    Nick
