Hello and welcome to the Radiance synthetic imaging system. This is |
4 |
< |
the thirteenth release, Version 3.5, and it includes all source files |
4 |
> |
the thirteenth release, Version 3.6, and it includes all source files |
5 |
|
for local compilation with a standard C compiler. To find out what's |
6 |
|
new in this release, check the text file "doc/notes/ReleaseNotes". |
7 |
|
|
26 |
|
the software on differently configured systems using a global make |
27 |
|
script. To install the software, just type: |
28 |
|
|
29 |
< |
makeall install |
29 |
> |
./makeall install |
30 |
|
|
31 |
|
You can clean up the .o files and so forth with: |
32 |
|
|
33 |
< |
makeall clean |
33 |
> |
./makeall clean |
34 |
|
|
35 |
|
Or, if you are confident you can do both at the same time with: |
36 |
|
|
37 |
< |
makeall install clean |
37 |
> |
./makeall install clean |
38 |
|
|
39 |
|
You can give other make options at the end of the command as well. For |
40 |
|
example, the -n option will tell you what makeall is going to do without |
43 |
|
If you downloaded the binaries, so compilation is not necessary, |
44 |
|
run the following command to install the library files only: |
45 |
|
|
46 |
< |
makeall library |
46 |
> |
./makeall library |
47 |
|
|
48 |
|
The makeall may script ask you questions about your system and where you |
49 |
|
want to install the executables and library files. The pathnames you |
