Since the X Window interface is available on many hardware platforms, only C-language source code and documentation is provided. To create an executable program, it is necessary to compile the "xmgndisp.c" file and link it with the X11 library appropriate to the target machine. Since xmgndisp uses only the lowest level Xlib subroutine calls, it should be possible to install it on many flavors of X11, e.g. OpenWindows, Motif, etc. Assuming the GxDR CD-ROM has been mounted on /cdrom, a typical installation would go as follows: cd /tmp cp /cdrom/software/unix/xmgndisp.c . cc -I/usr/include/X11 -o xmgndisp xmgndisp.c -lX11 -lm cp xmgndisp /usr/local/bin cp /cdrom/software/unix/xmgndisp.man /usr/man/manl/xmgndisp.l Xmgndisp will also display the images on Magellan MIDR disks. It can translate between pixel address and latitude/longitude for most VICAR2 images in SINUSOIDAL, MERCATOR, and polar STEREOGRAPHIC projections. It has been tested on the following platforms: Processors: VAX, DecStation, Sun-SPARC, Sun-M680x0 Operating systems: Ultrix 4.1, SunOS 4.0.3, SunOS 4.1.1 User interfaces: X11R3, X11R4, OSF/Motif, OpenWindows/2 Window managers: olwm, mwm, twm This software is provided without warranty of any kind.

This is an ASCII file which contains installation instructions.
