Hi Winson, one thing you do wrong is, that you must set up the command line interface correctly for Visual C++ 2005. You must run the batch file vcvars.bat which is somewhere in the bin directory where the compiler is installed "program files\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\VC\bin" or similar. Than everything is set and if you run nmake or cl this must succeed. Than you must run cmake and it will find everything and a subsequent nmake will compile plplot. I will go through the instructions and improve them, but not this weekend, but hopefully next week. I'll let you know. Werner winson wrote: > Werner, > > Thanks for the response.
