Current Page: NeXtMidas Training Start Here Requirements
| System Requirements: This class was designed to be taught using 32-bit Linux systems and has been tested on RHEL 3, RHEL/CentOS 5, and RHEL/CentOS 6 (though later RedHat versions should work fine). This in no way implies that NeXtMidas will not run on Windows, 64-bit Linux, or other platforms (it runs fine on those systems). It is just saying that the examples/labs are provided with this setup in mind. Required Software: NeXtMidas, see instructions for obtaining software at: (http://nextmidas.com/) This training requires NeXtMidas 3.6.0 or later. Java (http://java.oracle.com/) Java 7 or later (see the NeXtMidas Release Notes for details). Java 7 Documentation (optional, but highly recommended). Text Editor Any standard plain-text editor will do, `vi` is the most popular, but `emacs` and `nedit` also work well.
