I have again decided to try to build and run Plplot.
I am running Windows 8
I got it to work fine using Cygwin.
I tried many many combinations of Mingw configurations
(TDM 32 seems to work, but I want to run 64). Finally, I
got one to build and the compile and run a Fortran example.
I messed around trying to put the compiler and plplot files
in the place I want them permanently, then went back to the
test directory and the executable didn't work any more. I get
the following:
=======================
C:\walt\Software\Plplot\TEST_MINGW>gfortran --version

*** PLPLOT ERROR, ABORTING OPERATION ***
plInitDispatchTable: Could not open drivers directory, aborting operation

=======================================
I compiled with the same gfortran that was used to build Plplot
(as far as I can tell--Cmake seems awfully fussy about files
in paths completely unrelated to what I am doing). I put all the
*.a and *.dll files in one directory to do the test. Here it is:

==========
Sorry for the length, but I wanted to provide whatever might
be needed. What directory of drivers is it looking for? Is there
a way to tell it where to find it? Thanks.
I have attached the Fortran file just in case, but it is just a
slight revision of x00f.f90 in the Plplot examples.
