See the file ./INSTALL.html for how to compile and install this program.
If you want to run this program without installing, you HAVE to set the LD_LIBRARY_PATH variable so that freewrl can find the shared libs. Try:
setenv LD_LIBRARY_PATH /home/luigi/FreeWRL-1.04.1/JS/js/src/Linux_All_OPT.OBJ/:/home/luigi/FreeWRL-1.04.1/blib/arch/auto/VRML/VRMLFunc/
Of course, change the paths to suit your build directory. The syntax above assumes using csh or equivalent for your shell.
It should be noted that the freewrl executable file is in the directory "CFrontEnd". ie, the freewrl executable, using the paths above, is:
/home/luigi/FreeWRL-1.04.1/CFrontEnd/freewrl
and, of course, when building (see the INSTALL.html file), you should "make", not "make install".
For updates, see the FreeWRL homepage, currently at http://www.crc.ca/FreeWRL/
After installation, try:
freewrl tests/1.wrl
This should open a new window with a view of the VRML world in question.
Use the first and third button of your mouse (while moving your mouse) to move around.
To change viewers between walk and examine, press 'w' or 'e' or 'd' in the browser window ('d' only works with the keyboard currently).
