----------------------------------------------------
|
|
---------- INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS: ------------
|
|
----------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
This directory should contain two folders:
|
|
src/ <-- location of all python and bash scripts
|
|
common/ <-- location of shared force fields and molecules
|
|
|
|
The ``moltemplate.sh'' script and the python scripts that it invokes are
|
|
located in the ``src/'' subdirectory. You should update your PATH environment
|
|
variable to include this directory.
|
|
|
|
If you do not know what a PATH environment variable is, read:
|
|
http://www.linfo.org/path_env_var.html
|
|
(I receive this question often.)
|
|
|
|
It is also a good idea to set your MOLTEMPLATE_PATH environment variable to
|
|
point to the ``common/'' subdirectory.
|
|
(Force fields and commonly used molecules will eventually be located here.)
|
|
|
|
-- Installation example ---
|
|
|
|
Suppose the directory with this README.TXT file is located at ~/moltemplate.
|
|
|
|
If you use the bash shell, typically you would edit your
|
|
~/.profile, ~/.bash_profile or ~/.bashrc files to contain the following lines:
|
|
export PATH="$PATH:$HOME/moltemplate/src"
|
|
export MOLTEMPLATE_PATH="$HOME/moltemplate/common"
|
|
If you use the tcsh shell, typically you would edit your
|
|
~/.login, ~/.cshrc, or ~/.tcshrc files to contain the following lines:
|
|
setenv PATH "$PATH:$HOME/moltemplate/src"
|
|
setenv MOLTEMPLATE_PATH "$HOME/moltemplate/common"
|
|
|
|
-- Requirements: --
|
|
|
|
Moltemplate requires the Bourne-shell, and a recent version of python
|
|
(2.7, 3.0 or higher), and can run on OS X, linux, or windows (if a
|
|
suitable shell environment has been installed).
