- This directory contains the distribution of version 3.2 of starchart,
- plus several supporting programs, and documentation.
-
-
- PROBLEMS and installation:
-
- You should have no difficulty with the three programs in the
- "dataconv" directory.
-
- You might (but shouldn't) have trouble with "observe". However, a few
- compilers might still have trouble with the large expressions used in
- some calculations. Also, if you have non-standard time functions, you
- may need to change that section of code.
-
- You must take care in compiling programs in the "starchart" directory.
- Examine (all of) and edit (a few lines of) the Makefile. Decide which
- versions of the program you will want to use (there is a different
- version for each (input/)output device). Also examine the
- "postconv.awk" file if you will be using "starpost", and "startool*"
- if you have a Sun computer.
-
- Extensive documentation is available in the "doc" directory, in a
- variety of formats.
-
- Sample input files are found in the "samples" directory.
-
- Some data files are in the "data" directory. Other starchart data
- files are distributed separately.
