Installing nMOLDYN on Windows is straightforward. The nMOLDYN windows installer can be downloaded from the site:
http://sourcesup.cru.fr/projects/nmoldyn.
Once downloaded, to launch the nMOLDYN windows installer, just double-click on it. A dialog will open asking for a confirmation about the
place where to install nMOLDYN. By default, this should be the path for your Python installation and that value should not
be changed unless you have several Python installation on your machine (not recommended).
Currently, the only nMOLDYN Windows installer available was build with Python 2.5. If you want to build a version of
nMOLDYN compatible with python 2.4, the strategy to adopt is a little bit different. This time, you have to
- download the archive nMOLDYN-3.x.y.zip or nMOLDYN-3.x.y.tar.gz;
- uncompress it in the directory dir of your choice;
- open a DOS shell;
- go directory dir;
- enter python.exe setup.py bdist_wininst, this will create a dist directory containing
the nMOLDYN Windows installer, nMOLDYN-3.x.y.win32-py2.4.exe;
- double-click on the newly created nMOLDYN-3.x.y.win32-py2.4.exe file in the dist directory. This
will install nMOLDYN
This strategy should also work with Python 2.6.
