Quick Start

Run netobjd (the network objects name server) in a shell, if you want to use network objects.

Run obliq in a shell to start the interpreter (use ^D to exit). (use "obliq -ui" for the version supporting FormsVBT; use "obliq -anim" for the version supporting animation.) See also obliqsrv .

At the prompt, say "help;" for topics, and "help topic;" for a topic. Say "help net;" for exporting/importing network objects.

Put your definitions in files with extension ".obl".

Within Obliq, say "load Foo;" to find Foo.obl along the current search path. (Say "help sys;" to set the search path; the default is ".".)

The file "~/.obliq" is loaded at startup, if found. You may want to put the following line (or one with an appropriate file path) there, to automatically start the network objects name server on your machine:

process_new(processor, ["/proj/mips/bin/netobjd"], true);
