Downloading Equation Lists
MathCast allows you to work on equation lists with other people on a LAN or across the Internet.
In order to see the Download Screen: From the Edit Screen select the “Download” option from the File Menu.
In the textbox, enter the IP of the computer you want to download from, for example: “80.145.220.8”.
If the port number is different than 8085, then you can specify the port after a colons sign, for example
“80.145.220.8:8089”.
You can set the default port for other people to download from you in the Settings Screen. MathCast’s
default port is 8085. However, it automatically adds 1 to the default port, if you run a few instances
of it.
You can download another user's equation list file using the address of 80.145.220.8:8085/list.xml.
Another way to view the equation list of another user, is by browsing to the equation list using a Mozilla (or Firefox) browser:
- In the address bar, write down 80.145.220.8:8085/math.xml.
- In order to have the list refresh every five seconds, write down 80.145.220.8:8085/refresh.xml.
- You can set an arbitrary number of seconds by entering 80.145.220.8:8085/refresh.xml?interval=3.
