BSU is best run from a PowerShell. There are several options.
- A static build is available on the website, BSU_EXEC.zip. This is a
precompiled version that just includes binaries and assumes that gnuplot has
been installed on the Windows platform. Unzip it in a directory that is in your
execution path.
- Cross-compile on a Linux system using MingW32. For this option, download
MingwBSU-3.0.1.tgz and untar in /usr/local/src. Then change into the top
directory.
- make
- make install
This will create a directory, EXEC, with all the *.exe binaries. For this to
work, you will need to install the MingW32 tool chain on your Linux platform.
- You can try taking the linux source tar archive and build it in cygwin. I
have dropped cygwin support in BSU-3.0.1 because most Microsoft users find
cygwin a challenge, and don't understand the relationship between cygwin and
Windows. Most Microsoft users will rather just install the *.exe files and be
done with it. Man pages are in man-bsu3-html.zip, Octave scripts in Octave.zip.
