Installing V_Sim version 2.x

Download and untar the files

I suppose that you have downloaded visu-gl_gtk-2.1.tgz in some working-directory and then ungzipped and untarred it:

> gzip -d -c visu-gl_gtk-2.1.tgz | tar xvf -

or, if your tar command supports it:

> tar -zxvf visu-gl_gtk-2.1.tgz

Configure, compile and install

Now, I suppose you are reading this README.install file in:

working-directory/visu-gl_gtk-2.1

Please cd working-directory/visu-gl_gtk-2.1/MAKE then type:

> ./configure your-favorite-install-directory

> make all

> make install

> make clean

In the above ./configure command, replace the argument your-favorite-install-directory with the directory where you wish all needed files to be installed (should be different from working-directory)

Note that all eventually pre-directories needed will be created

Note also that the install process will REMOVE ANY files and directories in your-favorite-install-directory before making installation

i.e. if you use a command like:

./configure /aaa/bbb/ccc/ddd

• all directories /aaa/bbb/ccc/ddd will be eventually created if not pre-existing
• all files and subdirectories in /aaa/bbb/ccc/ddd will be removed
• all needed files will be installed in /aaa/bbb/ccc/ddd

After the make clean command, the working-directory/visu-gl_gtk-2.1 will be restored in the same state as now (i.e. just after having created by untar) However, you will have your-favorite-install-directory containing the needed files You can cd your-favorite-install-directory and look at files therein to use the program just installed.
