How to view the simulation after running the code on Cygwin?

0

I am using a MD program called Macsimus, I ran a test simulation, however I cannot see any plot showing up? I see the following comments on Cygwin

showcp is /cygdrive/c/Users/Neena/Desktop/macsimus_2018_09_13/macsimus/bin/showcp plot is /cygdrive/c/Users/Neena/Desktop/macsimus_2018_09_13/macsimus/bin/plot

From the instruction at http://old.vscht.cz/fch/software/macsimus/

Graphics (blend, show, and some utilities) is available for 
basic X11 without any other requirements.

This means that you need to install the X Server. Probably for your scope is enough to install the cygwin packages xinit and xterm and all the other packages will come as dependency.

I added xinit and xterm, however I still do not see the trajectory – Neena1490 – 2018-10-06T22:58:36.127

are you starting the program from xterm instead of mintty (Cygwin Terminal) ? – matzeri – 2018-10-07T08:20:43.270

I am using a cygwin terminal – Neena1490 – 2018-10-08T13:53:30.907

Try from the XTerm after running the XServer. Mintty is a console program and does not use the X server interface – matzeri – 2018-10-08T16:16:37.683
