Int4Sci installation

Basic Int4Sci installation

Note that for Windows OS, the Microsft Visual C software is needed if you have downloaded a source version of Int4Sci. If you don't have this software, download the binary version of Int4Sci.

For the first use :

1 Uncompress the provided package : this will create an Int4Sci folder.

2 Go to the Int4Sci folder.

3 Run Scilab.

4 If you have a source version of Int4Sci, type in your Scilab Window :

--> exec builder.sce;

--> exec loader.sce;

4 If you have a binary version of Int4Sci, type in your Scilab Window :

--> exec loader.sce;

Beware ! On Windows OS, this installation can fail if your Int4Sci folder is located in a directory whose name contains the space character (like Documents and Settings) !!

After the first use :

1 Go to your Int4Sci folder.

2 Run Scilab.

3 Type in your Scilab Window :

--> exec loader.sce;

If any problem, contact the technical support with a full report describing exactly the returned error, your Scilab installation and your hardware.
