### Installation:
|
||
|
||
The simplest way to compile this package is:
|
||
|
||
1. `cd` to the directory containing the package's source code.
|
||
|
||
For the next two commands, `csh` users will need to prefix them with
|
||
`sh `.
|
||
|
||
2. Run `./autogen.sh` to generate the `configure` script.
|
||
|
||
3. Run `./configure` to configure the package for your system. This
|
||
will take a while. While running, it prints some messages
|
||
telling which features it is checking for.
|
||
|
||
4. Run `make` to compile the package.
|
||
|
||
5. Type `make install` to install the programs and any data files
|
||
and documentation.
|
||
|
||
6. You can remove the program binaries and object files from the
|
||
source code directory by typing `make clean`.
|
||
|
||
Detailed intallation instructions can be found in the `INSTALL` file.
|
||
|
||
### Optional features:
|
||
|
||
Optional features can be enable by specifying them during configure. For
|
||
example, to enable visualizer run `./configure --enable-visualizer`.
|
||
|
||
Additional details can be found in the INSTALL file.
