Gauss Light Version 8.0
- Please note that files can only be downloaded via COMMAND LINE FTP, not a
browser (such as Internet Explorer, Netscape, Firefox, etc.).
- You must use a
command window to download the files. To open a command prompt window, click
on Start, then Run, and type cmd.
Below is a list of files that you may wish to download and what each is:

- GAUSS_8.0_Manual.zip
[all documentation zipped together]
Save the files that you download to either your root directory (usually C:) or
a directory that you set up that has no spaces in the title; there can be
problems saving the files to a directory such as C:\Documents and
Settings\.
You *must* know the name of the files you wish to download.

BROWSER TO DOWNLOAD THE FILES.
