# WIN32 and GMT

GMT will compile and install using the Microsoft Visual C/C++ compiler. We expect other WIN32 C compilers to give similar results. Since gmt_math_init cannot be run you must manually rename gmt_math_win32.h to gmt_math.h. The netCDF home page gives full information on how to compile and install netCDF; precompiled libraries are also available. At present we simply have a lame gmtinstall.bat file that compiles the entire GMT package, and gmtsuppl.bat which compiles most of the supplemental programs. It is hoped that someone with nmake knowledge will transform these scripts into slick .mak files, perhaps with DLL libraries. If you just need to run GMT, the GMT_win32bin.zip archive contains precompiled binaries. See L.2 for binary i/o redirection problems.
