==Set Up==

===Matlab Version===
* Unpack this file into <tt>'''C:\mprogs'''</tt> or in a directory of your choice eg <tt>'''X:\ISIS'''</tt>
* Open your startup.m file (if it does not exist, then type 
   >>edit startup.m 
in the matlab window immediately after matlab started or save this file in the folder where matlab starts)
* Add the following lines to the startup.m file

<pre>addpath('c:\mprogs\mslice') % where c:\mprogs\mslice is the folder you unzipped mslice into
mslice_init </pre>

===Standalone Version===

Unpack the archive into the directory of your choice keeping the structure of folders you find within the archive.

Before using a MATLAB compiled product you must run '''MCRInstaller.exe'''. This .exe file installs required components of MATLAB on your computer. Admin rights are required to run this and it must be run the first time you download a standalone matlab application. If you have already run this file on your computer, you do not need to run it again. 

After MATLAB components are installed, you can run '''mslice.exe'''

=== Examples ===

Some examples are included with the program. These are .msp files used by '''mslice''' to store locations of various '''mslice''' parameters and references to the required data plus the data themselves. After installation you can look through these examples choosing them from ''Parameters'' window and selecting examples from ''/Data'' directory, located below your '''mslice''' installation folder.

===Start Mslice===

To stat mslice in Matlab, type >> mslice. To start the standalone version, double click the mslice.exe file. An example should appear in the GUI straight away. To look at other examples, click the parameters menu item and click load parameters. Then choose one of the other example .msp files to load.
