Software and datasets to support `Modern Applied Statistics with
S-PLUS', fourth edition, by W. N. Venables and B. D. Ripley.
Springer, 2002, ISBN 0-387-95457-0.


All installations require a working C compiler.

Note: the installation of MASS requires a Fortran compiler. If you
have C but not Fortran, edit MASS/Ins6 to use cppr.c not ppr.f.



S-PLUS 6.x
==========

The scripts assume that the command to run S-PLUS 6.x is Splus: if not
set S as below. Then type

	./INS6

If your Splus command is not `Splus', first set the environment
variable S, e.g. if command is `S61' you might be able to use (sh, bash)

	S=S61 ./INS6

or (csh, tcsh)

	env S=S61 ./INS6



When all is done, type 	

	./INS6 tidy

WARNING -- tidy removes all the sources, so make sure you keep
a backup copy of the sources, such as the original distribution.

Then move or link the directories MASS class nnet and spatial
to a public or private library directory.
