The GNUPLOT source code and executables may be copied and/or modified freely as long as the copyright messages are left intact. See the History file for changes to GNUPLOT. Compilation instructions are near the end of this file. GNUPLOT has been tested on Sun3's and Sun4's (SunOS 4.0.3 and 4.1.1), a VAX 6410 (VMS 5.2), Commodore Amiga's (KS/WB 1.3 and 2.0, Lattice C and Aztec C beta 5.2a), IBM PC XT's and AT's (MS-DOS 3.3/5.0 BC++ 2.0/TC++ 1.0), IRIS 4D/70G and 4D/25G with MIPS C, NeXT with gnu C 1.34, DECStation 5000/200PXG (ULTRIX V4.1), AT&T 3B1 (version 3.51m with cc and gcc 1.39), and Apollo's (DomainOS SR10.3 BSD4.3 with C compiler 68K Rev 6.7(316)). The code is written with portability in mind. GNUPLOT has not been tested on Pyramid 90x and IBM PC Microsoft C.

TO COMPILE under UNIX: To compile do: Copy makefile.unx to Makefile cp makefile.unx Makefile Look through the Makefile to see if you need to make any changes. See especially the HELPDEST and TERMFLAGS variables. Edit if needed. Alternatively, all these variables may be set as command line arguments to 'make'. For example: make <MACHINE> HELPDEST='/usr/um/misc/lib/gnuplot.gih' \ DEST='/usr/um/misc/bin' READLINE= Edit term.h, to include/exclude terminals Type make For further instructions. If that works, try make install For further instructions. under VMS: To compile: copy makefile.vms makefile. make Or if you don't have a suitable make: @buildvms To tell gnuplot where to find the help library: $ define gnuplot$help disk:[directory]gnuplot.hlb Alternatively (and preferably) put the help in the main system help library. under AmigaDOS: Using Aztec C 5.2a make -f makefile.ami Using Lattice C 5.1 lmk -f makefile.amg under MSDOS: Using Microsoft C 5.10. copy makefile.msc makefile make makefile Using Borland C++ 2.0, Turbo C++ 1.0 copy makefile.tc makefile Edit makefile to change TC, BIN, BGI, BGIOBJ. You may also want to turn on overlays (See manual for more on overlays). Edit linkopt.tc (linkopt.tco if overlays on) to change location of libraries. make Using Turbo C 2.0. As per Borland C++ 2.0. Edit linkopt.tc to change location of libraries. The file gnuplot.gih is needed for help on the PC. If the file gnuplot.gih is not in the default directory, then use: set GNUHELP={full path name of gnuplot.gih} ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES See 'help environment'. If the environment variable GNUTERM is found, it is used as the terminal type. Otherwise, in some cases the variable TERM will be used, or the hardware may be automatically detected. The PC version looks for the environment variable GNUPLOT to contain the name of the directory from which to load the initialization file GNUPLOT.INI. See the help on 'start_up' for more information. HOME is examined as a directory where a .gnuplot startup file might be found. See help on "start-up". If defined, the environment variable GNUHELP is used for the name of the .gih help file, otherwise HELPFILE (defined in makefile or plot.c) is used. The VMS version looks for the logical name GNUPLOT$HELP to locate the help library. The CGI drivers need the CGIPATH environment variable to set the path to the CGI agents, and the CGIDISP and/or CGIPRNT environment variables to set the output devices.
