14(A) no, this is normal, this is just the output of FROG, showing that everything is ok.
15You should find your *vis and *geom files when it has ended.

18(Q) I do not remember how to run FROG
19(A) Just run the "frog" executable in Utilities/FROG
20 me@mylaptop:~$ cd Utilities/FROG
21 me@mylaptop:~$ ./frog

24(Q) How should I know which external libraries I need for FROG ?
25(A) Please refer to this page on the FROG website:
26 http://projects.hepforge.org/frog/Visualization.html
27 you will need OpenGL, GLUT, X11-devel, Curl. For instance:
28 OpenGL :
29 xorg-x11-Mesa-libGL-6.8.2-1.EL.33.0.2
30 xorg-x11-Mesa-libGLU-6.8.2-1.EL.33.0.2
31 GLUT :
32 freeglut-2.2.0-14
33 freeglut-devel-2.2.0-14
34 X11-devel :
35 xorg-x11-devel-6.8.2-1.EL.33.0.2
36 CURL :
37 libcurl

40(Q) FROG complains that libcurl is missing. What should I do?
41(A) First, make sure the libcurl library is installed on your computer.
42 - locate it on your computer
43 me@mylaptop:~$ locate libcurl.so
44 /usr/lib/libcurl.so
45 - if the library is not present, take it from the internet (http://curl.haxx.se/) or via installers like "apt-get" (ubuntu systems) or "yum" (fedora systems)
46 - if the libcurl.so is not found, juste make a symbolic link in Utilities/FROG/Lib:
47 me@mylaptop:~$ cd Utilities/FROG/Lib
48 me@mylaptop:~$ ln -s /usr/lib/libcurl.so
49 me@mylaptop:~$ ls -l libcurl.so
50 lrwxrwxrwx 1 me me 21 Jan 7 15:19 libcurl.so -> /usr/lib/libcurl.so.4.0.1
51 - now it should work properly
