+  generate an output file that LIVEPLOT can read. Then use the "Import

+<P>
+Note that in normal use, LIVEPLOT is started from inside EXPGUI with
+an open .EXP file. If LIVEPLOT will be used frequently for Topas, it
+may be useful to create a shortcut to start LIVEPLOT directly. This
+can be done in Windows by following these 
+<A
+HREF="https://subversion.xor.aps.anl.gov/trac/EXPGUI/wiki/InstallWindows#shortcut">instructions
+to make a short cut</A>, but reference file <tt>.../expgui/liveplot</tt>
+rather than file <tt>.../expgui/expgui</tt>. Similar things can be
+done in Linux and on the Mac.
