Mathematica is installed on several public UNIX computers at Dartmouth. It
is possible for you to run it remotely under X Windows. By remotely,
we mean running it on one UNIX computer and displaying the results on another
UNIX computer, X terminal, Macintosh, or PC running some X server software,
such as Reflections, XDarwin, or MacX.
Mathematica uses some specialized fonts for its equations; these fonts need
to be available to your X server when you are running Mathematica remotely. To
use a font server to allow Mathematica to gain access to these fonts:
- If your X server is another UNIX computer or X terminal issue, use the
xset fp+ tcp/rcfontserv.dartmouth.edu:7100 command in the
terminal window.
This adds the font server running on a computer called
rcfontserv using the tcp protocol on port 7100. This server
has been set up to serve the Mathematica fonts.
- If you are running Mathematica using an X server on a Windows or Macintosh
computer, set up a font server by selecting the Font Settings
menu option. Specify rcfontserv.dartmouth.edu as the
host name and 7100 as the port
number.
