The "Zones" manu has not been working right - if you have a canvas open with one 
histogram plotted and you select Zones "2x2", nothing happens. The expected 
action is to have the canvas divide itself into 4 pads (2x2) and the one 
histogram to show up in the first pad. That's how it works now.

svn rev 240.

Somehow neither Joe nor myself were in the "cvs" group and could not commit
to the miroodas CVS. Fixed by editing root@dasdevpc:/etc/group + NIS reload.

I have some comments on roody :

1)
The peakfinder is only available when you right click on the histogram line.
This is a very limited area. I would rather make the peakfinder available 
whenever you right click anywhere in the histogram area.

2)
On a canvas with zones:
When you start the peakfinder from a histogram, which is not active, roody 
searches for peaks on the active histo. Therefore, I would make the histogram 
active, whenever you click on the histo, no matter which button you click. Or 
the peakfinder should make the histo active first.

3)
When you change the zones you loose all your histos. I would prefer to have the 
histos, which are already displayed also on the rezoned canvas. 

4)
When I resize the x-axis of a histogram by hand and then plot a new histogram 
in the same pad, I loose the scale I have choosen. There should be a switch, 
with which you can keep the settings of a histogram for further histos.

If you agree upon these requests, let me know if you like me to implement some 
of these features.

These all seem like good suggestions and it is fine with me if you want
to work on the code.

I have committed point 1 and 2.

For point 3 you need to save all displayed histos in a stack. So that you can plot 
them into the rezoned canvas. I don't know if you want to do that.

I would prefer if you would do point 4.

I created a CVS repository for the ROOT GUI project: 
/dasdevpc/cvsroot/miroodas (dasdevpc:/usr/local/cvsroot/miroodas) 
 
K.O. 

Updated CVS instructions for ROODY:

1) cvs anonymous read-only access:
     export CVS_RSH=ssh
     cvs -d anoncvs@dasdevpc.triumf.ca:/usr/local/cvsroot checkout roody
    (username: anoncvs, password: anoncvs)
2) read-write cvs access (requires user account on dasdevpc.triumf.ca)
     export CVS_RSH=ssh
     cvs -d USERNAME@dasdevpc.triumf.ca:/usr/local/cvsroot checkout roody
3) build instructions:
     cvs ... checkout roody
     cd roody/src
     make
     ./roody {file.root,file.hbook,-Hhostname:port}

K.O.

Updated build instructions for end-users.

To checkout the miroodas sources use:

setenv CVS_RSH ssh
cvs -d anoncvs@dasdevpc:/usr/local/cvsroot checkout miroodas
(password: anoncvs)
cd miroodas/src
setenv ROOTSYS whatever
make
./TTriumfGui file.root or file.hbook

K.O.

miroodas code has been imported into the CVS and can be checkout

cvs -d /dasdevpc/cvsroot co miroodas

or

cvs -d gking@dasdevpc:/usr/local/cvsroot co miroodas
--using gking as an example user

Please see miroodas/doc/README.txt for more information on compiling

cheers,
Greg

I commited a series of changed to Roody:
- cleanup unused files
- show contents of TDirectory objects (this used to work before, why was it
removed? It was a 1 line fix!)
- rework and simplify controls for zooming and rebinning of TCanvas contents
K.O.

After changing ROOT version from root_v4.04.00 to root_v4.04.02, the histograms
don't stay highlighted after clicking, but the top "Roody" bar disappears sometimes.

I commited the implementation for a new menu item: "OptStat". It allows setting
gStyle->SetOptStat in a user-friendly manner. K.O.

I created an account for Joe Chuma on the DAQ cluster. The home directory 
is /send/home/chuma. Joe, please contact me to learn your password. K.O.

I created a CVS repository for the ROOT GUI project:

(should I rename it to cvsroot/miroodas?).

MAIN GUI
========
Invocation:
TTriumfFileGUI -h 
 ->Displays Usage message
TTriumfFileGUI host
 ->Opens GUI and connects to host on default port 9090
TTriumfFileGUI host:port
 ->Opens GUI and connects to host on port (to be implemented)
TTriumfFileGUI file.root
 ->Opens GUI and opens file.root for browsing
TTriumfFileGUI file.hbook
 ->Opens GUI and opens file.hbook for browsing (to be implemented)
TTriumfFileGUI
 ->Opens GUI

File Menu
 -> Open .root
	Opens file selection dialog to find and open a ROOT file
 -> Open .hbook
	Opens file selection dialog to find and open an HBOOK file
 -> Online
	Opens hostname entry dialog ... Will try and access that host on
        port 9090 (currently using 9090 as default port)
 	If hostname:port, will try and access hostname on proper port 
        (Not Yet Implemented)
 -> Save
	Not Yet Implemented -> Idea:
		Will bring up a save dialog which will allow user to save 
		all opened histograms
 -> Exit
	Closes the program

Refresh Menu
 ->Not Yet Implemented -> Idea: (Radio Buttons)
     ->Stop Refresh
	 Stops the refreshing of online histograms by stopping the TTimer

	Each of these will changes force all the new TCanvas() created to be 
	divided into zones
	If double clicked (TGListTree or TGListView) will create new canvas,
        unless option is changed in AddHist to Menu.
        If from context menu -> can overlay in current pad
