You will need to know if you are running 32- or 64-bit Windows (click here ?if y
ou are not sure).
1.Download the free CanopyExpress package from ?Enthought, Inc. download page. (
Supplying an e-mail address is optional.) Select the 32-bit version (upper right
) if on 32-bit Windows. For 64-bit Windows, either version can be used, but we r
ecommend the 64-bit version as that will handle much larger refinement projects.
python \Users\<me>\Desktop\GSASII\bootstrap.py
in a "All Programs"/Enthought Canopy/"Canopy command prompt" window. Note that d
ouble-clicking on the bootstrap.py file will open it in the Canopy code editor.
This can also be used to execute this install script, but this is a bit clunky.
This script will check to see that the Python packages needed to run GSAS-II are
installed and that the subversion program needed to install and update from the
Internet (included in the .zip file) is present. It then asks for a proxy addre

Proxy address: For most people, pressing return to use the default (no proxy) wo

ly need a proxy. Check with your network/computer administrators; anyone compete
nt should know if a proxy is in use. Supply the address (proxyout.securesite.gov
) on the first line and the port number (7070) on the second.
Note that many seemingly nasty warning messages appear when PyOpenGl is installe
d. This is not a problem, provided the installation and script complete normally
.
After the script completes, a file named RunGSASII.bat is created with the locat
ions of GSAS-II and Python hard-coded. You should have a shortcut to start GSASII on your desktop linked to that .bat file (see screen image?). GSAS-II project
files (with extension .gpx) will appear with the same icon and clicking on them
