Welcome
-------
esve is a platform-independent C++ library for building 3D and 4D
visualization applications with a cross-platform front end. There are
several applications here which demonstrate its use.

Requirements
------------
The GUI library 'fltk' is required (http://www.fltk.org/software.php);
esve has been tested with fltk-1.3.3.

Compiling esve
--------------

For UNIX-style machines, run "autoconf && ./configure && make".

For Windows/mingw, first copy Makefile.defs.mingw to Makefile.defs
then edit Makefile.defs, giving the compiler and fltk paths.  I
recommend the Cygwin environment together with the latest mingw
compiler from mingw.org.

Where to Start
--------------
Documentation begins at documentation/index.html.

The bundled applications are in the apps/ directory; executables are
created inside their respective directories.

If you are new to esve, I recommend running hopfviewer first.  It has
in-application help and demonstrates some essentials of
four-dimensional geometry.
