Installing the System
ASSESS

ASSESS in its executable form is entirely in the public domain. In the future, it may be downloaded from the U.S. EPA Bulletin Board System.

ASSESS.exe is the only file required to run ASSESS. If a metacode file is to be converted to a file with an HPGL format, then Hpplot.exe and Hershy.bar are required. Hershy.bar is a character font file and is required to execute Hpplot.exe.

The executable file, example data set, and optional files are as follows:

ASSESS

422778 bytes (required)

Optional:

Standard	.fil	2576	bytes	(example data set)
Alt1	.fil	1417	bytes	(example data set)
Alt2	.fil	1636	bytes	(example data set)
Saved1	.fil	4744	bytes	(used for comparison)
Saved2	.fil	3771	bytes	(used for comparison)
Barchart	.met	1440	bytes	(used for comparison)
Scatter	.met	2880	bytes	(used for comparison)
Results	.fil	4744	bytes	(used for comparison)
Smdata	.fil	1714	bytes	(example data set)
Example	.fil	4744	bytes	(example data set)
Hpplot	.exe	98417	bytes	(conversion program)
Herahy	.bar	176000	bytes	(required with Hpplot.exe)

The files denoted as "Used for Comparison" will be created by ASSESS as you run through the program. Therefore, these files may reside somewhere outside the directory where ASSESS resides and thus will not be overwritten.

The source code is written in FORTRAN 77 for the Microsoft (Microsoft Corporation, Redmond, WA) FORTRAN compiler (version 4.01 ). With the exception of slightly modified proprietary Graflib Version 1.0 (Sutrasoft, Sugarland, TX) subroutines used for generating screen graphics, the source code is also in the public domain.
