Readme File for DustemWrap
**************************

0. What is this?

This package contains the DustemWrap software, developed and maintained at the Institute of Research in Astrophysics and Planetology (IRAP).

DustemWrap requires the fortran code DUSTEM, which is developed and maintained at the Institute of Space Astrophysics (IAS). The DUSTEM fortran code must be downloaded separately (see the DustemWrap Users' Guide for instructions on obtaining and installing DUSTEM.) 

A static version of the DustemWrap Users' Guide is provided in Docs/dustem_wrapper_UG.pdf

The Users' Guide contains: 
* instructions for obtaining DUSTEM
* installation instructions for the current releases of DustemWrap and DUSTEM
* an overview of how DustemWrap works (including how it interacts with the underlying DUSTEM fortran code)
* format requirements for user input 
* a description of how color corrections and plugins are implemented in Dustemwrap
* a description of the individual DustemWrap routines
* usage examples

A continuously updated version of the Users' Guide, including a FAQ and list of known current issues, is maintained at the following URL:
