14 ALSCRIPT is distributed with executables for Sun (SunOS 4.1.3), Silicon
15 Graphics (IRIX 5.3), DEC ALPHA OSF/1 and Sun Solaris (2.4). The executables
16 are stored in the subdirectories bin/sun, bin/sgi, bin/osf and bin/sol. If
17 these are OK for your system, then just add the apporpriate directory to your
18 path, or put links to /usr/local/bin or somewhere that is on all users paths.
20 The source code for ALSCRIPT is contained in a directory hierarchy.
21 The top directory contains a README file and the BUILD script.
22 Subdirectories are: <b>examples</b> which contains example command and
23 alignment files, <b>doc</b> which contains <IMG ALIGN=BOTTOM ALT="" SRC="_19723_tex2html_wrap672.xbm"> and PostScript copies
24 of the manual - a subdirectory of this contains an HTML version of the
25 manual, and <b>src</b> which contains the source code and Makefiles for
26 the package. There may also be a directory called <b>bin</b>. If
27 present this will contain subdirectories with executables for the
28 programs in the package. Makefiles to build alscript, msf2blc,
29 clus2blc and alsnum are included in the <b>src</b> directory. Versions
30 for Sun (acc compiler .sun), Silicon Graphics (.sgi), DEC OSF/1 (.osf)
33 There is a utility csh script called BUILD. Simply type ./BUILD sun to
34 compile alscript on the Sun, ./BUILD sgi for Silicon Graphics or BUILD
35 gcc for use with gcc compiler. See instructions in the file BUILD.
36 The BUILD script will create a /bin directory and subdirecotry
37 if not already present. You can create makefiles for different computers
38 and the BUILD script should still function.
