(Tracy) At Richard's suggestion he has been investigating Orange, a free, open source data mining package. The interface is similar to Insightful Miner. It's written in C++; functions can be accessed via Python scripts or through a GUI. We can hope that, since it is open source, those features it lacks will be added in time by the community using it, maybe even by us. It can't handle large ntuple files: it choked on one and Tracy had to cut it down to 5000 events. Originally Insightful Miner had a similar problem, but a work-around was found; perhaps one exists for Orange also. Tracy was able to build from sources on Windows. Would be useful to have Bill try it out and report impressions.
ruby vcmt.rb -f e:\\Ric\\file.cmtpathsThis way you can have two instances of MRvcmt with different CMTPATH running concurrently.
