Re: installation of relax on windows based platforms -- February 27, 2012 - 21:43

Hi,

I've now repackaged the relax-1.3.13 Zip archive for MS Windows and
uploaded it to http://download.gna.org/relax/.  Jimmy and Karin, could
you please test and see if the new file correctly extracts.  Either
downloading from http://www.nmr-relax.com/download.html#MS_Windows or
http://download.gna.org/relax/ is ok.  It looks like the previous file
was truncated by one byte either when I transferred it from my Windows
VM image or when uploading it.  The new one should hopefully fix this.

Regards,

Edward
