General
-------
This AVL and its plot library has been compiled using
Compac Visual Fortran for a Win32:  Win2K XP system.

It does't run as well as the Linux build.

If is recommended that you extract the contents of the avlCVF.zip file to the
following directory  c:\Avl  and do not change the directory structure within.


Build sequence
--------------

....see original AVL web site for HOWTO build on win32 documentation.
              http://raphael.mit.edu/avl

In this case the Win32 exe has been pre-built and lives in the 
 bin/ directory.


Documentation
-------------
User Guide is in the  avl_doc.txt  file.  If impatient, you can just
run AVL in the runs/ directory, which contains a few input files:

NOTE: This version runs properly ONLY from a command window.

so to start it go to START menu
select RUN and enter "cmd" then when you see the BLACK WINDOW.


 % cd c:\avl\runs
 % ..\bin\avl vanilla    (or the name of an AVL data file)

The files  session1.txt, session2.txt  contain keyboard input examples.
