[mcstas-users] McStas with Octave

[Jesús P. de Vicente]

Hello Peter,

Thank you. I am trying to use FreeWRL because I didn't find any other open
wrml software. But it works very well.
I guess that It can also record gif animations.

Is the trace option an intrinsic limitation of Octave?

Thank you very much.
kind regards,
