PGPLOT Installation Instructions: Windows 95/98/NT with Absoft Pro Fortran

I am presently installing and testing PGPLOT under this system, and full instructions should be available soon. Contact me for additional information. I am grateful to Absoft Corporation for providing a copy of the compiler.

Most of the PGPLOT code, including the standard drivers (PostScript, GIF), should work without change on this system. There is currently no driver to display PGPLOT graphics in a Windows screen window; this is obviously a major drawback. However, I cannot yet predict when such a driver will be available. Anyone interested in providing such a driver should contact me to avoid duplication of effort.
