DDLab Cygwin readme: Sept 2015 update ------------------------------------------------------------------- This version of DDLab was compiled in Windows 7 for Cygwin/X, a Linux environment running in Windows. ddlabz03_cygwin32.tar.gz unpack to give ddlabz03_cygwin32.exe Your Cygwin/X must have the default packages, and also xorg-x11-base, xorg-x11-devel, xorg-x11-fnts. To run DDLab: click on the Cygwin icon and enter "startx" to get a terminal, then from the directory with the DDLab files, enter the name of the executable preceded by ./ and followed by & ./ddlabz03_cygwin32 & alternatively, first change directory to "ddfiles" then enter the name of the executable preceded by ../ and followed by & DDlab should run just like the Linux or Mac versions, though much slower. ------------------------------------------------------------------- To compile DDLab: Click the Cygwin icon. Enter "startx", for the Cygwin terminal. Change to the directory with the DDLab source code and the Makefile, which is the same as for Linux. Enter: "make -f Makefile_Linux_z03" (or the name of the Makefile) If the compile is successful, ddlabz03.exe (or the file name set in the Makefile) is created. Run as described above. -------------------------------------------------------------------
