"In order to run the e-Handbook, the browser must be have Java Platform properly installed and the security properly setup. Java Standard Edition can be downloaded from the SUN site. Look for Java Runtime Environment (JRE) 5.0 or newer. Click Download and look for the Window system to download the self-extracting file. Once the download process is completed, run the executable and follow the onscreen instructions to install.
The Java Policy file is required for the e-Handbook to Save, Load and Execute the Fortran file. Click Java Policy File and save the file to the user.home\.java.policy. (Note that the file has two periods, one before and after 'java'.) Here user.home refers to the value of the system property named user.home, which specifies the user's home directory. For example, if the user logged on as Mitch, save the file into C:\Documents and Settings\Mitch\.java.policy. Restart the computer so Windows can load the new security settings.
Download the e-Handbook. The e-Handbook can be unzipped to a folder e-Handbook, which can be placed anywhere on the PC. In the e-Handbook folder, go to the "gui" directory to look for the file index.html file. The e-Handbook can be started by clicking index.html file. Current Installation is good for Windows platform only. Linux and Unix Installation will be available later." |
