Follow the build instructions in the wiki. If you have some specific questions about those, ask for clarification on this list, and hopefully those developers with access to Cygwin will respond directly to you and also with a wiki update. > Also, l would like to know which the way to install is better with > CMake or ABS ABS is the old, deprecated build system that is scheduled for removal just after the forthcoming 5.8.0 release because nobody wants to bother to maintain it any longer. In any case, the new CMake-based build system is more powerful and much easier to maintain. So the CMake-based build system mentioned in the wiki is the correct one to use. > Which plplot version is better ? The latest svn trunk version (scheduled to become the 5.8.0 final release shortly) is our current best version of PLplot. There are some fixes I put in there specifically in response to your first complete bug report. Those fixes were done after the 5.8.0 release candidate (5.8.0-RC1) was released so the latest svn version is even better than 5.8.0-RC1 (especially for the Cygwin platform). All Cygwin reports for 5.8.0-RC1 or before should be largely ignored because of those recent fixes. Alan __________________________ Alan W.
