Thank you for downloading the GoTools Implicitization library.


Requirements:

* The gcc c++ compiler. The library has been tested on gcc-3.3.5 and
  gcc-4.4.1.

* You need the 'boost' library installed on your system in order for
  the module to compile.  This library can be downloaded from
  www.boost.org.

* The module also needs the GoTools Core Library.  This can be
  downloaded from 'http://www.sintef.no/math_software'.


A few comments on the current distribution:

(1) In order to compile/install the library, you can follow a standard
    "configure, make, make install" procedure. See the INSTALL file.
(2) You can generate doxygen information by typing 'doxygen' in the base
    directory.
(3) Example programs are included in the 'app' directory. You need to
    be in the root directory to run them, since they use data files in the
    'data' directory. Usage: app/example_SomeApp
(4) Of course - if you want to install the library on your system you
    need root privileges.
(5) Note that the provided makefile is written for linux only.
(6) The matrix library 'newmat' is included in this distribution and
    will be compiled/installed at the same time. 'newmat' is freely
    available from: http://www.robertnz.net/.


Good luck!
