Changed line 14 from:

Using Window Maker in Linux, as explained on the Kiosk Mode page, you can set up a computer to start with Celestia running a script in full screen mode; but the .cel script will stop running at the end of the script. It needs an automatic restart at the end to make it useful. You can imbed a .cel script in a .celx script to put it into a continuous loop to accomplish this. The code is on the Celestia forum at this link: http://www.shatters.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=5689

The latest version of Celestia is 1.3.2; but it is not available as a RH rpm as of 1/18/04 that I know of. So, you have to compile it from the source code. The kde and glut, but not the gtk versions worked for me. The official tarball may be missing some kde related files, so get the complete tarball here: http://celestia.teyssier.org/
