The creation of Monte Carlo N-Particle (MCNP) geometries, using a text editor, can be very complex and time consuming. A visual editor to create and display MCNP geometries has now been in use for several years at Hanford for MCNP geometries for numerous applications. A large user base has helped to identify problems with the code, and many modifications have been made to satisfy user requests. The code currently uses Motif libraries for the graphical user interface and runs on most UNIX workstations. The code is now available for public release and can be obtained through the Radiation Safety Information Computational Center (RSICC).
