[ncl-install] Problem with idt/ctrans gmeta visualization

[Mary Haley]

Laura,

Idt is behaving exactly like it's supposed to. No image will appear  
until you click on the "play" (filled triangle) button.

The "can't find any spooled devices for printing" is normal too. You  
have to set up your own special file (ncarv_spool)  if you want
to send images from idt to a printer.  More information on this can be  
found at:
