Getting started A short introduction to install and load ATOMS modules in Scilab.

## Introduction

This page teaches how to get started with ATOMS module manager on the scilab platform towards a session example. It describes how one can install a module and load it in Scilab environment.

## Atoms

- Configure ATOMS to display extra-information:

      -->atomsSetConfig('Verbose','True');

- List available modules

      -->atomsList();

      ampl_toolbox - An interface to load .nl files created by AMPL
      ANN_Toolbox - ANN Toolbox
      conmin - A Scilab interface to the conmin optimization method
      CUTEr - Testing environment for optimization and linear algebra solvers
      dace_scilab - This is a conversion of the well known DACE kriging toolbox for Matlab.
      dde_toolbox - Dynamic Data Exchange client for Scilab
      HYDROGRv50 - Models and function for operational hydrology
      lolimot - A fast neural network - LOcal LInear MOdel Tree
      module_lycee - Scilab pour les lycées
      NISP - Non Intrusive Spectral Projection
      plotlib - "Matlab-like" Plotting library for Scilab
      scilab2c - Translate Scilab code into C code
      scipad - Scipad 7.20
      simplex - This package contains the simplex optimization method
      sndfile_toolbox - Read & write sound files
      stixbox - Statistics toolbox for Scilab 5.2

- Install a module, download it and extract it. The module is installed but it's not loaded in the scilab environment and its functionalities are not available yet.

      -->atomsInstall('NISP');

      NISP (2.1) will be installed in the 'allusers' section
      Installing NISP (2.1) ... success

- Load a module.

  By default, a module is added to the list of modules to load at Scilab start when it's installed.

      -->atomsLoad('NISP');

      Start NISP Toolbox
      Load gateways
      Load help
      Load demos

- Remove a module:

      -->atomsRemove NISP

      NISP (2.1) will be removed from the 'allusers' section
      the package NISP (2.1) is currently loaded, It will removed at next Scilab restart
