1.)  Introduction

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

     Notes: 

       - This version of DISLIN is free software.  You can copy  and
         redistribute it. 

       - A free version of Borland C++ 5.5 is available from

         http://www.inprise.com/bcppbuilder/freecompiler/


2.)  Installation of DISLIN

     The  DISLIN version for the Borland Compiler C++ is distribu-
     ted in the zipped file  dl_75_bc.zip.  An utility for unpack-
     ing the  DISLIN  files  is available  from the  same location 
     where you have downloaded  dl_75_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_75_bc.zip
     and unzip.exe to it:

     for example:   md  c:\temp
                    cd  c:\temp
                    copy e:\dislin\win95\unzip.exe    *.*
                    copy e:\dislin\win95\dl_75_bc.zip *.*

  b) Extract the DISLIN files with the command:

                 unzip  -o dl_75_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

     Add the DISLIN\WIN directory to the PATH environment in the 
     file AUTOEXEC.BAT

     for example:  PATH C:\BIN;C:\DISLIN\WIN

     Add the DISLIN environment variable DISLIN to the autoexec.bat
     file:

     for example:  SET DISLIN=c:\dislin   
   

  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
