CGNS Project Group

Any or all of the LaTeX version of the CGNS documentation may be downloaded and installed on a local system. To do so, download the desired document(s) from the following list by clicking on the link while holding down the shift key, assuming your browser supports this capability. A dialogue box will appear for you to specify the directory and file name to be used on your local system. The following documents are available. The sizes shown are in bytes.

	File Name		Document		Size (Packed)		Size (Unpacked)
	charter_tex.tar.gz		Steering Committee Charter		36 K		113 K
	overview_tex.tar.gz		Overview and Entry-Level Document		47 K		144 K
	user_tex.tar.gz		User's Guide to CGNS		298 K		1629 K
	midlevel_tex.tar.gz		Mid-Level Library		58 K		308 K
	sids_tex.tar.gz		Standard Interface Data Structures (SIDS)		168 K		687 K
	filemap_tex.tar.gz		SIDS-to-ADF File Mapping Manual		85 K		676 K
	filemap_hdf_tex.tar.gz		SIDS-to-HDF File Mapping Manual		87 K		666 K
	adf_tex.tar.gz		ADF User's Guide		73 K		318 K

Using the SIDS-to-ADF File Mapping Manual as an example, unpack the downloaded file(s) by doing:

   gunzip -c filemap_tex.tar.gz | tar xvf -

With a reasonably recent LaTeX distribution installed, you can create both PostScript and PDF versions of the documentation from the LaTeX source. Again using the SIDS-to-ADF File Mapping Manual as an example, to generate a .dvi file, then a PostScript file named filemap.ps, in the directory filemap do:

    latex filemap.tex  (Repeat 2-3 times to resolve cross-references, etc.)
    dvips filemap.dvi -o

    pdflatex filemap.tex  (Repeat 2-3 times to resolve cross-references, etc.)
