Re: Octaviz installation on Mac but first need VTK, and possibly also Cmake

I do not work on a Mac, and so my help will be limited.  I am also the 
only other subscriber to the octaviz list at the moment!  You might also 
try the octaviz web forums (in the sourceforge site).

I haven't tried anonymous cvs checkout in awhile, but it should work 
according to the sourceforge instructions.  You could also try the last 
release, octaviz-0.4.  This you can download directly as a tarball.

You will definitely need cmake and vtk (>vtk-4.4) to compile octaviz.  I 
do not know if you can get these through fink or not.  If not, install 
them from source from the vtk website (vtk.org).

HTH,
Jonathan
