Install gOpenMol
Steps to do to install gOpenMol on UNIX
I'm only distributing gOpenMol (currently) as a binary

academic installations and academic use.
- Most likely you have just got a compressed tar file
version of gOpenMol (gopenmol.tar.Z). You have to
uncompress the file first with the command:
- uncompress gopenmol.XXX.tar.Z

Steps to do to install gOpenMol on Windows 95 and NT
I'm only distributing gOpenMol (currently) as a binary
distribution, if you need the source code you have to get in
touch with me. The program is distributed free of charge for
academic installations and academic use.
- You have got the gopenmol.zip file downloaded from the
net. Take a program (WinZip is a good candidate) to unzip
the file.
- Choose the directory where you want to download the
program including the files. The unzip program creates a
directory gopenmol and places the file in the
respective directories.
- Change directory to the gopenmol directory and run the install.bat
file. This procedure will call the wish shell and run the
installation procedure. After the installation procedure
you should have a new bat file in your gopenmol/bin
directory called rungOpenMol.bat. This file starts
gOpenMol and makes all the needed environment
assignments.
- Run the script rungOpenMol.bat always when you
want to run the gOpenMol program.
Uninstall gOpenMol
Both the Unix and the Windows versions can be removed by just deleting
the root directory and the directories under the root.
The Windows version uses no register entries and places no files in the
system directory.
