Hi Christopher,

A couple of things, to delete caveData, you can either open a file browser 
window, and go 
to your home directory and completely delete the folder called "caveData".  Or, 
you can do
what Tiffany has suggested, by opening a terminal (there should be a shortcut 
on the 
desktop, looks like a black square), and type:
 rm -rf ~/caveData
And hit enter, this will completely remove that folder.
The next thing she is asking is for you to keep the terminal up, and type:
 tail -f ~/caveData/logs/consoleLogs/*/*.log
This window will then output a bunch of text when you go to open CAVE and run 
Warngen.
She was hoping you could create another video of you running CAVE, with this 
terminal
window visible too, so we could see it's output as you try to run warngen.
It would also be helpful if at the same time you open another terminal, either 
double
click on the shortcut again, or make a new tab on the existing terminal with 
ctrl+t,
and run a similar command:
 tail -f ~/caveData/logs/consoleLogs/*/*.log >> ~/Desktop/caveLogs.txt
This will output all that text into a new file on your desktop called 
'caveLogs.txt'
that you could send to use.

If you do make the new video, just make sure the terminal window with the first 
'tail'
command is visible so we can see the output simultaneously while you run CAVE.

Let me know if that makes more sense!
Thanks.
