This is GetDP, a General environment for the treatment of Discrete
Problems.

GetDP is distributed under the terms of the GNU General Public
License. See LICENSE.txt and CREDITS.txt for more information.

The demos/ directory contains a small problem definition example.  The
reference manual as well as additional examples are available on the
web site (http://geuz.org/getdp/).

Important notes:

1) GetDP is a command-line driven program: it has no integrated
   graphical user interface. To launch GetDP without the graphical
   front-end provided by Gmsh (see below), you have to first open a
   DOS command shell.

2) If you often use GetDP on the command line, you will probably want
   to install a better shell than the rather rudimentary DOS
   shell. Amongst the many free replacements available on the web, we
   recommend the cygwin environment (http://www.cygwin.com), which
   also provides all the necessary tools to compile GetDP.

3) The problem definition files (".pro" files) are regular ASCII text
   files: you can create them with whatever editor you like (Notepad,
   Wordpad, Emacs, etc.). You can download Emacs for Windows from
   ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/windows/emacs/.

4) Gmsh (http://geuz.org/gmsh/) is a 3D CAD, mesh and post-processing
   program that can be used as a graphical front-end to GetDP. To
   launch GetDP via Gmsh, simply open Gmsh, go to the solver module
   and click on the GetDP button. If Gmsh cannot find GetDP because
   getdp.exe is not in your path, simply specify the location of
   getdp.exe in the 'Command' field. You can save the new location
   with 'File->Save Options->As default'.
