[Scilab-users] Trouble with 5.4.0 on MacOSX 10.8.3

[Gary Nelson]

Got it.

After deleting configuration files and restarting, SciNotes is available. 

Updated to 5.4.1 as well.  Looks like a restart is under way.  I thank you all for a fine job.

My next step is to learn XCOS as I would like to create some signal processing block based on algorithms I have worked out in scilab.
