1.)  Introduction

     This file describes the  installation  of the  data  plotting
     software DISLIN on IBM-PCs  for  the operating system Windows
     9x/NT/2000/XP and G95.

     Notes: 

       - This version of DISLIN for G95 is free software for non-
         commercial use. You can copy and redistribute it. 

       - G95 is available from http://www.g95.org

2.)  Installation of DISLIN

     The  DISLIN version for G95 is distributed in the zipped file
     dl_83_g9.zip.  An utility for unpacking the DISLIN files is 
     available from the same location where you have downloaded 
     dl_83_g9.zip, or from the DISLIN CD-ROM. 

     To install DISLIN, make the following steps:

  a) Create a temporary directory and copy the files dl_83_g9.zip
     and unzip.exe to it:

     for example:   md  c:\temp
                    cd  c:\temp
                    copy e:\dislin\windows\unzip.exe    *.*
                    copy e:\dislin\windows\dl_83_g9.zip *.*

  b) Extract the DISLIN files with the command:

                 unzip  -o dl_83_g9.zip

  c) Run the setup program with the command

                  setup

     -  Choose OK

     -  Give the Installation Directory where  DISLIN  should be in-
        stalled. The default directory is C:\DISLIN.

  d) Reconfigure the System

     Set the DISLIN environment variable to c:\dislin and include
     c:\dislin\win in your path. If you have installed DISLIN in a
     different directory, you have to use that directory for the 
     environment variables above.

     The setting of environment depends on your Windows version:

     Windows 98/ME

        Add the following commands to the autoexec.bat file

        PATH=c:\dislin\win;%PATH%
        SET DISLIN=c:\dislin   
   
     Windows NT/2000/XP

        In Windows NT/2000/XP environment variables can be set or
        modified with the Control Panel 
        (see Settings -> Control Panel -> Advanced -> Environment
        Variables).

  e) Now you can compile,  link and run the example programs in the
     DISLIN subdirectory examples with the commands

                    g95link -a  exa_f90    
                    g95link -a  map_f90 

     Notes:

         - g95link links by default with the DISLIN single precision 
           library disg95.a. A double precision version of the library
           is also included (disg95_d.a). 

         - DISLIN needs the library libgdi32.a for linking that is not 
           included in the g95 distribution. The library is available
           from the site www.cygwin.com in the w32api package.
           You can copy libgdi32.a to the installation directory of
           G95.
