+In addition to the above dependencies, running relax on MS Windows requires
a number of additional programs. These include:

+To install, simply download the pre-compiled binary distribution
\texttt{relax-x.x.x.Win32.zip} or the source distribution
\texttt{relax-x.x.x.src.zip} and extract the files to
\texttt{C:$\backslash$Program Files$\backslash$relax-x.x.x}. Then add this
directory to the system environment path (in Windows XP, right click on `My
Computer', go to `Properties', click on the `Advanced' tab, and click on the
`Envirnment Variables' button. Then double click on the `Path' system
variable and add the text ``;C:$\backslash$Program
Files$\backslash$relax-x.x.x'' to the end of variable value field. The
Python installation must also be located on the path (add the text
``;C:$\backslash$Program Files$\backslash$Python24'', changing the text to

-Compilation of the C code is not essential for running relax. However
certain features of the program will be disabled. One example is relaxation
curve-fitting. This approach may be necessary for systems, such as MS
Windows, where C compilers are not readily available (although the cygwin
environment may provide the tools required for compilation).

-To run relax without compilation install the dependencies detailed above,
download the source distribution which should be named

+Compilation of the C code is not essential for running relax, however

exponential curve-fitting for determining the $\Rone$ and $\Rtwo$ relaxation
rates requires compilation. To run relax without compilation install the
