Note: Microsoft NMAKE is not provided in the LF Fortran Express
Edition product.

The directories under the EXAMPLES directory contain numerous 
example programs demonstrating various abilities such as mixed 
language programming, use of the WiSK graphics library, OpenGL, 
etc. 

With the exception of the Examples\Make directory, each example 
directory contains batch files and at least one NMAKE make file. 
There should always be a master make file called "makefile" in 
each directory. If the directory contains several programs or 
subdirectories, the master make file will compile and execute 
each example program in each of the subdirectories, by invoking 
that program's make file. If the directory contains a single 
program with no subdirectories, the make file will directly 
compile and execute the example program.

If the user wishes to determine the commands necessary to build 
a particular example, the batch file should be examined, because 
it contains the explicit build command. If the user wishes to 
peruse the examples directory to gain a sense of the capabilities 
of LF95, the makefiles should be executed, because they run the 
example programs sequentially, with a minimum of effort.

To execute a master make file, at the command prompt, the user 
should cd to the desired directory and type "nmake". To execute
an individual make file for a specific program, the user should 
type "nmake /f makename.mak" where "makename.mak" is the name of 
the make file in question. To clean up after running the examples, 
the user can type "nmake clean", and all built files in the 
directory or subdirectory will be deleted.

The Examples\Make directory contains both Nmake make files and 
Automake configuration files. The nmake file and the automake 
file both build the same project. To invoke the Automake build, 
run the batch file "amproj.bat". To run the Nmake makefile, type 
"nmake".

The Examples\Mix_lang\MSVC directory additionally contains 
project files so that each example program can be build using 
Visual Studio 6. Before opening the project in Visual Studio, 
the following steps should be taken so that Visual Studio can 
find LF95:

1) Open TOOLS|OPTIONS menu selection

2) Select the DIRECTORIES tab in the tabbed dialog

3) Select "EXECUTABLE FILES" from the "SHOW DIRECTORIES FOR" 
   dropdown menu. See if any LF95 directories already exist 
   there. You will either need to delete them, or make sure 
   that the LF95 directory appears before them. At the 
   bottom add the LF95 bin directory.

4) Select "LIBRARY FILES" from the "SHOW DIRECTORIES FOR" 
   dropdown menu.  Add the LF95 lib directory. Make sure that 
   no other Lahey directories appear before this directory.

5) Select "INCLUDE FILES" from the "SHOW DIRECTORIES FOR" 
   dropdown menu.  Add the LF95 include directory. Make sure 
   that no other Lahey directories appear before this
   directory.
