VERSION 2.1.1 (released 2005-10-06)

Oktober 3, 2007
New mexfiles for matlab 2007a on PC-platform
Matlab has changed the way mex-files work in Matlab2007a. The precompiled mex-files included in WAFO do only work for Matlab2006 and below. Thus the files has to be compiled again.
The compiled mexfiles for matlab 2007a and PC-platform can be downloaded here.
Unzip it to a suitable folder and move the following mexfiles:
csort to directory WAFO/misc
findcross, findrfc to WAFO/onedim
and the remaining mexfiles to the WAFO/trgauss/private.
