1.)  Introduction

     This file describes the  installation  of the  data  plotting
     software DISLIN on IBM-PCs  for Windows  and the  Borland C++
     compiler.


2.)  Installation of DISLIN

     The  DISLIN version for the Borland Compiler C++ is distribu-
     ted in the zipped  file  dl_11_bc.zip.  A utility for unpack-
     ing the  DISLIN  files  is available  from the  same location 
     where you have downloaded  dl_11_bc.zip,  or from the  DISLIN
     CD-ROM. 

     To install DISLIN, make the following steps:

  a) Create a temporary directory and copy the files dl_11_bc.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_11_bc.zip *.*

  b) Extract the DISLIN files with the command:

                 unzip  -o dl_11_bc.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 environment variables can be set or modified with the Control
     Panel 
    
     (see Control Panel -> System -> Advanced -> Environment
      Variables).

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

                    clink  -a  exa_c   
     and            clink  -a  map_c

     Note:  clink links by default with the single precision library
            disbcc.lib, but the distribution contains also a double
            precision version of the library (disbcc_d.lib).   


3.)  Getting DISLIN Support

     The DISLIN distributions can be used freely without any restriction.
     Access to the source code is availabe via a support contract from the
     site www.dislin.de.
