===========================
                      3DVIEWNIX 1.5 FTP Version
                     ===========================

                     Last Updated : June 2, 2004
                     ----------------------------


We have the FTP version in two forms: one big file, and smaller files for 
those who cannot download the whole of 3DVIEWNIX in one file.

-------------------------------------------
Instructions for downloading smaller files:
-------------------------------------------

ftp mipgsun.mipg.upenn.edu
anonymous
<your internet address as password>
cd pub/3DVIEWNIX/BINARIES
ls
cd pclinux_small [or whichever _small directory is appropriate for your platform]
binary
mget *
bye
sh install

-------------------------------------------
Instructions for downloading one huge file:
-------------------------------------------

ftp mipgsun.mipg.upenn.edu
anonymous
<your internet address as password>
cd pub/3DVIEWNIX/BINARIES
ls

- There are two compressed 'tar' files in this directory:

        1) 3dviewnix_sun_solaris.tar.Z
        2) 3dviewnix_pc_linux.tar.gz

  where (1) contains the files for Sun SPARC class of machines, (2) contains
  files for the PC Pentium class of machines running Linux.

        << use BINARY mode when FTPing the compressed tar files >>

- To uncompress these files, use the following command:

        % uncompress 3dviewnix_sun_solaris.tar.Z
          (for Sun SPARC machines running Solaris 2.x (SunOS 5.x))
                        or
        % gunzip 3dviewnix_pc_linux.tar.gz
          (for PCs running Linux)


- To extract the directory structure and the files inside them use the
  following command:

        % tar xvf 3dviewnix_sun_solaris.tar
          (for Sun SPARC machines running Solaris 2.x (SunOS 5.x))
                        or
        % tar xvf 3dviewnix_pc_linux.tar
          (for PCs running Linux)

---------------------------
After retrieving the files:
---------------------------

If the above procedure was successful, there should be a directory
named 3dviewnix and several directories and files inside it that 
looks like:
