[ANONYMOUS.RASMB.SPIN.MS_DOS.UCONN_UAF]
====
In this directory there are the following DOS programs: PCNONLIN.EXE,
MATCHV7.EXE, NONEQ4.EXE, XLICAMRA.EXE, XLAEDIT.EXE and
REEDIT.EXE. To run these programs, a 80386 or better PC
with  math coprocessor and minimum 4 MB extended memory are required.
In addition to running under DOS 5.0 (or higher) the programs are also
compatible with Quarterdeck DESQview 386 and all EMS emulators that
support the VCPI interface. If you are using the DOS device driver EMM386
then you must use the NOEMS and NOVCPI options (at least that is the only
way I have gotten these programs to run) or, alternately, run the program
out of a DOS box in Windows 3.11, Win95 or WinNT.
When installing the program, please create a subdirectory then copy all the
DOS files on the disk to that directory. The file EPS-L.BIN is for generating
the postscript output file, the files F77l3.ERR and LF90.EER are for
identifing runtime errors, and the file COLORS.CFG is for configuring the
color of graphics.  Refer to the file of REEDIT.TXT on how to use COLORS.CFG
for all three programs. This will be of use for changing the color of the
background for making DOS graphics screen dumps.  GRAYSCAL.EXE is a program
which is called from XLICAMRA.EXE in order to switch the DOS graphics color
scheme to a grayscale.
These files should reside in the same directory as the EXE programs or on
the DOS path.

PCNONLIN.EXE   - Nonlinear Least Squares Analysis of Sedimentation Equilibrium
               Data, see NONLIN.DOC (WinWord V6.0 or Win95 Wordpad document) for
               instructions.

MATCHV7.EXE  - Program for intercomparison of data files (up to 15 files).
               This can be used for, among other things, checking for the
               attainment of equilibrium.

NONEQ4.EXE   - A data generating program.  See NONEQ4.TXT.

XLICAMRA.EXE - XLIcamra is a DOS program written for viewing and extracting
               data from the interference images obtained from Beckman's XLI
               data acquisition program. See XLICAMRA.DOC (WinWord V6.0 or
               Win95 Wordpad document) for instructions.

REEDIT9.EXE  - A program for editing and blank subtraction of data files.  See
               REEDIT9.TXT for brief instructions.

XLAEDIT.EXE  - A earlier version of REEDIT which will save the data in the
               format required by Beckman's XLA DOS program.


WINDOWS PROGRAMS:

DEC.14, 1999 - ALL OLDER VERSIONS OF WINNONLIN HAVE BEEN REMOVED, LEAVING
ONLY THE MOST CURRENT VERSION.

WINNL106.ZIP contains the setup files for installation of a 32-bit version
of Nonlin for Win95 and WinNT(workstation).  This version has more extensive
editing capabilities as documented in the HTML-format help files
contained in the Zip-file WIN-HELP.ZIP.  The application,
Winnl106.exe, will accept up to 30800 datapoints and up to 15 datasets.
The default installation directory is \Program Files\WINNL106.

NOTE:  If you have trouble installing or running WINNL106 please
read the file README.Windows.

NOTE2: I have not been able to get the plotting routines for WinNonlin to
work in WinNT (server) because of OLE problems while creating a rotated
font for the Y-axis.  If anyone has any ideas about how to fix this I
would be very interested.  The actual error is'Run-Time Error "429" -
OLE Automation Server can't create object'.


WIN-HELP.ZIP contains the HTML-format help files for WinNonlin.  WINNONLN.HTM
is the starting point of the documentation.  There are no practical differences
between WINNONLR and WINNL106 other than the number of data points which
they will accept.

WINREED.ZIP contains the setup files for installation of a 32-bit version (Beta)
of a data editing program for UCF data.  I am just now releasing this application
and have not yet written a help file for it.  It is a very simple editing
program whose use will hopefully be fairly intuitive. The default
installation directory is \Program Files\WINREED

WINMATCH.ZIP contains the setup files for installation of a 32-bit version (Beta)
of the MATCH program for UCF data.  The application will accept up to 50
datasets (102,400 data points).  I am just now releasing this application
and have not yet written a help file for it.  It is a fairly straight
forward program whose use will hopefully be fairly intuitive. The default
installation directory is \Program Files\WINMATCH

****************************************************************************
The latest versions of any of these files can be also be downloaded using
anonymous FTP from spin6.mcb.uconn.edu.  I will try to keep these two sites
updated together but our home site, spin6.mcb.uconn.edu, will always have
the latest versions of these files.
