Installation Instructions for the CIRCSTATS S-Plus Library
========================================================== 

UNIX Version

Tested on S-PLUS 3.4, Release 1 for Sun SPARC, SunOS 5.3.
Users of S-PLUS 5 or later, using the new style of help 
files will have to complete the following instructions and then
convert the help files according to the documention provided
with their versions of S-PLUS. 

1)  Decide on a directory in which to store the S-PLUS library,
    for example

	/SHOME/library/

2)  Create a directory "circular" in this directory, and move the 
    compressed archive file "circular.tar.gz" into the directory
    "/SHOME/library/circular".

3)  Unzip the compressed archive "circular.tar.gz", using the command

	gunzip circular.tar.gz

4)  Extract the files from the resulting archive "circular.tar" by 
    issuing the command

	tar xvf circular.tar

    You should now have a "README" file, a directory ".Data" with the
    S-PLUS functions, and a directory "/.Data/.Help" with the associated
    help files for the functions.
    
5)  So that S-PLUS can locate the help files via the usual help interface,
    from within the "/SHOME/library/circular" directory, at the UNIX prompt 
    type

        Splus help.findsum .Data

6)  The Circular Statistics Library is now available for use.  Once 
    S-PLUS has been started, to access the functions in the library,
    issue the following command from the S-Plus prompt
        
	library(circular, lib.loc="/SHOME/library")

    The lib.loc option can be omitted if you have placed the circular 
    library in the S-PLUS default location for libraries.
