Compiling and Using plt under MS-Windows

It is possible without much trouble to compile and use lwplt under MS-Windows. Do not attempt to use a commercial C compiler for this purpose, however. The only C compiler that is known to work is Cygwin gcc (which is freely available from http://sources.redhat.com/cygwin and comes accompanied by a complete set of development tools and other utilities including GNU tar, make, bash, cat, dd, rm, and tr).

make install

make psdemo

If you have installed XFree86, start the X server (e.g., using startx) if it is not running already, and then (from an X terminal window) type:

make xdemo
