GEODAS Version 4.1 for X Windows   8/29/2001

Instructions for building GEODAS components from source files

You may build binaries for GEODAS with the supplied source code and
Makefiles. This is only neccessary if you do not have the supported 
platforms (at this time Linux and Solaris).

1. First run the GEODAS Install program. This will install most of
   the GEODAS components and will also will create subdirectory
   [geodas-support-path]/source/
   Under /source are 2 directories, fortran and geodastcl

2. The c sources files in geodastcl must be compiled to create a shared
   object library named libgeodastcl.so, which has the extentions needed
   to run GEODAS with Tcl/Tk. Use the supplied Makefile, editing as
   necessary to find your operating system's c libraries.

   Once you have successfully created libgeodastcl.so, copy it into
   [geodas-support-path]/lib directory. Be sure to set execute permissions.
 
3. The Fortran source must be compiled into several executables which are
   called from various Tcl/Tk scripts. The supplied Makefile should work, but
   you may have to make adjustments. There are some suggestions in Makefile.

   Once you have successfully created the binaries, copy all files beginning
   with gx_ to [geodas-support-path]/bin/ directory and set execute permissions.
   Copy files geodas-gridlist and geodas-hdrecs77 to /geodas-exectuable-path/
   directory. (geodas, geodas-gridtran and geodas-search and geodas.cfg are
   already in this directory).
