Summary

This is the first early release of COSMIX. It currently only supports Newtonian dynamics with point objects. This release is essentially intended to help with 2 things:

- debugging: I hope users will help me identify bugs by using COSMIX. Detailed bug reports are more than welcome.

- developpement: I need to know how users would like COSMIX to be, both in terms of inteface and features. Please allow yourself to dream on the ideal general N body simulator and tutorial and send me your ideas...
