This directory contains the distribution of LaRCSIM version
1.4d. Please see the CHANGELOG file for changes since version 1.3 .

Also included is an electronic copy of the User's Manual in both .TeX
and compressed PostScript formats.

NOTE: LaRCsim was developed for internal NASA use, and may or may not
be appropriate for other applications. It does show, however, how a
pseudo-real-time flight simulation might go together.  In addition,
this software is being provided "as is"; there is no intent to support
it beyond internal NASA revisions.

LIMITATIONS: 

 o  The current release requires GNU's make utility; the
enclosed Makefile may not run on other machines.

 o  The current release provides symbol table support only on Silicon
Graphics machines running ONYX 5.2; thus, IC/Trim/Time History
commands will only work on these machines.

INSTALLATION:

 o  Define an environment variable, LARCSIM, to point to the directory
containing this file. 

 o  Execute a gnu 'make' command

 o  Move to the navion subdirectory

 o  Enter another gnu 'make' command

 o  Type 'navion' to begin flight.
