Dear John, vmd users,

When I downloaded the latest vmd source from the cvs repository, all the files were made executable.
Is there a way to tell cvs to preserve file permissions as they are on the vmd cvs repository?

And, another question .. Are there any test versions of VMD 1.8.7 compiled with python 2.5 ? I upgraded my OS (I have now python 2.5, tcl is still 8.4.XX) and now I have the same old problem with the python interpreter in vmd-1.8.7-alpha19 version for LINUXAMD64 (sample error below). Numeric 24.2 is properly installed, tkinter as well (import site, import _tkinter, import Tkinter, import Numeric, import numpy work fine in a python window separate from VMD)....
.....That's why I started compiling the latest source code from CVS

Best wishes
vlad
