Compiling (and running?) on a headless server. about rhizome

[caluml]

I've worked around it by removing the rhizome dependency, and copying viz and dot.clj into my project, and removing most of viz that deals with images.

This compiles and runs fine.

Hope this is OK.
Not sure if there is a cleaner solution - perhaps detecting X11 displays at runtime, but I'll leave that up to you to decide... :)

Try adding -Djava.awt.headless=true to your JVM arguments, and let me know if that fixes it. It should, and I should add this to the readme.

@ztellman Unfortunately, no dice. getMenuShortcutKeyMask => http://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/api/java/awt/Toolkit.html

[devn]

I should clarify: Running with -Djava.awt.headless=true gets rid of the X11 display headless exception, but (.. Toolkit ... getMenuShortcutKeyMask) will blow up with a HeadlessException under 1.7.

Ah, I forgot that had been added in via a patch. Should be easy enough to detect the headless system property and bypass that bit of code.
