Help with Windows

[Clint Whaley]

Guys,

OK, a couple of people at least have expressed a willingness to help, so
I have created a couple of things to aid in this.

The first thing I have done is create a forum for people using ATLAS on
windows to exchange information, as well as for me to ask questions of
people who have more Windows-fu than I.  If you know something about
Windows, I hope you will monitor the forum:
   https://sourceforge.net/projects/math-atlas/forums/forum/1026734
And reply to any questions that you know.  

I have opened up some topics for things that I want to know (mostly newbie
Windows questions to make it quicker for me to get working on ATLAS rather than
Windows stuff when investigating ATLAS on Windows problems).  Please post
any relavent info you have!

If there are other things you have had to do to get things working, please open
up additional topics.

The other thing I have done to allow for external help is to open up a
special ATLAS on Windows support tracker:
   https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=23725&atid=1202777

As support questions come in, any that involve unsolved Windows-specific
problems will be moved here.  What I would like to ask of you windows-savvy
users is that you monitor this tracker list, and post any workarounds/fixes
that you know to user-reported problems.  Even in the absence of a fix,
having multiple people confirm the bug, and perhaps give additional info,
can be very helpful in finding the problem quickly.  

As I said before, probably at least half of all Windows problems are already
solved by other users; I think the separate tracker will just make it easier
for people to find and support these windows-specific issues.

So, please scope the new forum and sign up to monitor it if you are a
Windows user (I am monitoring it), add your $.02 to any topic, and
create any useful topics you know about, as well as scoping the new
support tracker.

If there are additional things I can do to help with Windows collaboration,
let me know (possibly on the windows forum!).

Many thanks,
Clint
