I have intstalled cdat-4.1.2 on cygwin running under
windows XP. Installation was mainly fine. However, when
I try to run vcdat the main window appears Ok and I can
load data but when I plot the data the program crashes
directely after the plot completes. I also tried plotting on the background canvas
and then trying to save the plot as postscript or gif.
Though the program does not crash, I get the following
errors:
In the cygwin window:
A remap error on python2.4/lib-dynload/termios.dll
followed by a fork error
In the vcdat error window:
1574 [main] python 2032 fork: child 1076 - died waiting for dll loading, errno 11
ValueError Exception in Tk callback

I have run the rebaseall in ash program before starting
cygwin and the X windows and then vcdat.
Any ideas?
Cheers
