Installing MatView
- To compile MatView you will first need to install the following
additional software packages:
- either TCL 7.4 / TK 4.0 or later...
- Next, you will need to set the MATVIEW_ROOT environment variable in your $HOME/.cshrc or equivalent shell startup file. The value of $MATVIEW_ROOT should be the directory where you have installed MatView, as in:
setenv MATVIEW_ROOT /home/me/MatView
3. MatView now supports "configure" installation. To create an appropriate Makefile for your system, simply run:
./configure
in the MatView directory. Then you should be able to just run
make
to build MatView for your system. The resulting "matview" executable will be placed in a subdirectory named for your system via the Unix "uname" system command. For example, for an SGI system, uname returns "IRIX", for a PC running Linux it returns "Linux", etc...
For information on the various configure options, you can run:
./configure -help
To run MatView, go into the subdirectory for your system and invoke:
matview
Running "matview -help" provides a list of command line arguments.
Enjoy!
