Thanks!<br><br>I can't seem to get it to work though. <br>When I configure --with-afterimage it says that I need to download it. When I use --download-afterimage it says:<br>"External package afterimage does not support --download-afterimage"<br>
<br>I am using a MAC with OS X. Where can I download afterimage?<br><br>Also, in general, if I want to add a configure to petsc with ./configure, do I have to run ./configure with ALL my options, or just with the new ones I want to add/change? Will it save my previous configure?<br>

Sorry the postscript never really worked and then the world went PDF.<br>

You can do what you want in PETSc 3.3 with<br>
<br>
ierr = PetscOptionsBool("-draw_save_movie","Make a movie from the images saved","PetscDrawSetSave",movie,&movie,PETSC_NULL);CHKERRQ(ierr);<br>
ierr = PetscOptionsString("-draw_save","Save graphics to file","PetscDrawSetSave",filename,filename,PETSC_MAX_PATH_LEN,&save);CHKERRQ(ierr);<br>
