* Description of GNU 3DLDF
GNU 3DLDF is a package for three-dimensional drawing with MetaPost output.
* Documentation
See the directories 3DLDF-2.0.3/doc/ and 3DLDF-2.0.3/doc/old_doc.
* Installing
The file INSTALL contains generic instructions on installing GNU packages.
They apply to GNU 3DLDF 2.0, however PLEASE NOTE that the environment variable
`LIBS' must be set to `-lgsl -lgslcblas -lm' when the `configure' script is run,
e.g.:
cd <your path>/3DLDF-2.0.3
export LIBS="-lgsl -lgslcblas -lm"
configure --prefix=`pwd`
or
cd <your path>/3DLDF-2.0.3
configure --prefix=`pwd` LIBS="-lgsl -lgslcblas -lm"
In these example, the package will be installed below the current directory,
i.e., the top-level distribution directory. It is safe to do this.
Alternatively, the shellscript `3DLDF-2.0.3/reconfig.sh' may be used to call
`configure'. If `reconfig.sh' is invoked without any arguments, or if its
first argument is 0, shared libraries will be built. Otherwise, they won't.
Not building shared libraries is faster.
* Running 3dldf
After the package has been installed, the program `3dldf' may be invoked from
the command-line like this:
3dldf
The user will be prompted for input.
Alternatively, one or more filenames may be specified:
3dldf sample.ldf sample1.ldf
The suffix `.ldf' may be omitted. If an input files has a different suffix,
however, it must be specified.
See the subdirectories `3DLDF-2.0.3/src/' and `3DLDF-2.0.3/examples/' for examples.
