I have now created a new DISLIN module for Python 1.6 (Win32) and added
it to the DISLIN distribution for Python. The name of the module is
dislin16.dll. If you are using Python 1.6, you can rename the file
'dislin.dll' to 'dislin15.dll', and then 'dislin16.dll' to 'dislin.dll'.

The updated DISLIN distribution for Python can be downloaded from the
DISLIN Homepage
