Re: [Condor-users] Job submission - generic user GUI available?

[filipdef@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx]

Hi John,

I've made our condor gui available on

http://www.cirquedigital.com/products/gdiqueue/

Currently also tuned for things like maya/max/xsi,
but have no problem sharing the sources if you'd
like to extend it.

Cheers,
- Filip
