[Patrick Maheral]

Hello,

My name is Patrick Maheral.  I work at Applied AI Systems, Inc. in Kanata 
(Ottawa), Canada.  Takashi Gomi, president of AAI, has asked me to
investigate Swarm, and I am in the midst of installing it now.  Actually, I
have run into a problem after the installation which indicates that I did
not install the libraries correctly.  I hope that someone else has seen the
following behaviour and can give me some pointers.

After the installation, I tried to compile "heatbugs" for a test.  It
appeared to compile correctly, but when I run the demo, I receive a
continuous stream of error messages.  The "Heat World" window appears with
bugs (but no indication of heat), and the graphs are just blank windows. 
The parameters appear though. 

I have compiled the libraries and compiler on a SPARCstation IPX running
sunos 4.1.3.  I compiled GCC, and GNU Make, but not the binutils (assembler,
linker, etc).  Before I spend too much time messing with the libraries and
compiler, I thought I would ask around.

The rest of this file is information that I thought might help.

For heatbugs, ldd produced the following:

        -lBLT.2 => /usr/local/lib/libBLT.so.2.0
        -lXpm.4 => /usr/local/lib/libXpm.so.4.8
        -lX11.4 => /usr/openwin/lib/libX11.so.4.3
        -lc.1 => /usr/lib/libc.so.1.9
        -ldl.1 => /usr/lib/libdl.so.1.0

The first couple of error messages are as follows (more error messages are
available if anyone cares to see them, but I think this is enough for now):

(Tcl -eval:) invalid command name "blt_bitmap"
    while executing
"unknown_pre_tclObjc $name $args"
    invoked from within
"if {[llength [info procs unknown_pre_tclObjc]]} {
       unknown_pre_tclObjc $name $args
     } else {

"if {[string match address@hidden $name]} {
