[Gnuplot-info] How to install GNUPLOT??

[Lenka <lea...@ya...>]

I have just downloaded the file gp400win32.zip  from
http://www.duke.edu/~hpgavin/gnuplot.html.

I am using Windows-XP (home) and I really dont know how to install GNUPLOT.
I opened this zip file but I cannot find any executable file to install. Th=
e
file INSTALL is a text file... Am I doing something wrong?.

I use Tex (latex) under WinEdt "environment".

Any help to install this software will be really appreacite.=C2=A3

Thanks in advance,

LG

Never heard of that place.  You may want to consider using "official" 
download locations, preferably sourceforge.net, instead of somebody's 
private pages.

No.  You're just spoiled rotten by Microsoft's "user should never be 
expected to know what they're doing" attitude.  ;->

You got a text file, so why didn't you *read* it?  Or, better still, 
read one of README text files that accompany it?
