User-Defined Dynamical Systems
</H1>
In most instances, we expect that DsTool will be installed on a network of computers and
used by a variety of researchers. It is not required, however, that each user
on a network utilize the same executable version of DsTool. We have provided ways in
which each user may customize certain features of DsTool to suit his or her needs.
An example of DsTool customization is the installation of a user-defined dynamical system.
In this chapter we will detail this process. More advanced customization, such
as adding computational code to DsTool or adding animation to models, is
discussed in $DSTOOL/my_dstool/README<A NAME="1924"> </A>.
