The program is distributed as a tar file containing three directories:
/src |
Contains all the source files necessary to compile the program, a makefile. The makefile seems to be working fine with gcc on Suns running Solaris and PCs running Linux. It also includes the lines of code necessary to compile the code using the Microsoft Visual C++ command-line compiler (cl). Since the program does not use any esoteric package, it should be easy to adapt the makefile to other compilers/platforms. |
/bin |
Contains two executable files, both for PCs: popstar runs on Linux, and popstar.exe on Windows (command line).
|
/examples |
Contains three instances illustrating the most common file formats. |
