! 55:
! 56: <p>Since the program produces many output files, we suggest to
! 57: have a separate directory for imach. <br>
! 58: </p>
! 59:
! 60: <ul>
! 61: <li>Uncompress the zip file <font size="2" face="Courier New"><strong>imach.zip</strong></font>
! 62: into an empty directory, <font face="Courier New">imach, </font>for
! 63: example<font face="Courier New">.</font></li>
! 64: <li>Different sub-directories are created:<ul>
! 65: <li>doc: most of the documentation. The main document
! 66: is <a href="doc/imach.htm">doc/imach.htm</a> .</li>
! 67: <li>bin: <ul>
! 68: <li><font face="Courier">imach.exe</font> the
! 69: executable for Windows 95/98/NT compiled
! 70: with gcc from cygwin.</li>
! 71: <li>graph.gp: an output file which is used by
! 72: the grapher, gnuplot, described <a
! 73: href="#gp37mgw">next</a>: </li>
! 74: </ul>
! 75: </li>
! 76: <li>data: Here are two data files:<font size="4"
! 77: face="Times New Roman"> </font><ul>
! 78: <li><font face="Courier New">data1.txt</font>
! 79: which is the main data file on which the
! 80: program has been run as the example in
! 81: the main documentation.</li>
! 82: <li><font face="Courier New">mydata.txt </font>a
! 83: smaller data file which you can use for
! 84: your own trial.</li>
! 85: </ul>
! 86: </li>
! 87: <li>mytry: A sub-directory to try your self. The
! 88: imach program outputs its results as <em>text
! 89: files </em>(tables) but also <em>images</em>
! 90: (actually in gif format) which are obtained in a
! 91: second step by running gnuplot (see below) on a
! 92: gnuplot command file named 'graph.gp' but also a
! 93: single html file 'index.htm' which can be clicked
! 94: to summarize your run.</li>
! 95: <li>src: This subdirectory contains the source of the
! 96: program. It can be obtained by asking us by mail <a
! 97: href="mailto:brouard@ined.fr">mailto:brouard@ined.fr</a>

! 100: <li><a name="gp37mgw">gp37mgw</a>: This is the
! 101: directory of the gnuplot software. Gnuplot for

! 105: The latest version, recently ported to windows,
! 106: has been included in imach.zip.</li>
