The following instructions, which assume a version number 2.8.0, and a SPARC solaris machine, show how to install these. <p> The compressed tar file, with a name like `<font color="#82140F"><samp>gri-binary-SunOS5-2.8.0.tar.gz</samp></font>' (in this example a Sun OS 5 binary is assumed, with gri version number 2.8.0) contains a directory which holds the executable Gri file, `<font color="#82140F"><samp>gri</samp></font>', the library file `<font color="#82140F"><samp>gri.cmd</samp></font>', an instructions file, `<font color="#82140F"><samp>README</samp></font>', and a Makefile to install Gri. <p> Here's how to install Gri, starting with this tar file: <p> <ol> <li> First, uncompress (unzip) the file, and un-tar it, by doing <p> <TABLE SUMMARY="Example" BORDER="0" BGCOLOR="#efefef" WIDTH="100%"> <TR> <TD> <PRE> <font color="#82140F"> gunzip -c gri-binary-SunOS5-2.8.0.tar.gz | tar xvf - </font></PRE> </TD> </TR> </TABLE> <p> or <p> <TABLE SUMMARY="Example" BORDER="0" BGCOLOR="#efefef" WIDTH="100%"> <TR> <TD> <PRE> <font color="#82140F"> zcat gri-binary-SunOS5-2.8.0.tar.gz | tar xvf - </font></PRE> </TD> </TR> </TABLE> <p> This will yield a new directory, with a name like `<font color="#82140F"><samp>gri-binary-SunOS5-2.8.0</samp></font>', which contains the indicated files. <li> Follow the instructions in the `<font color="#82140F"><samp>README</samp></font>' file to install Gri. </ol> <p> </table> <img src="./resources/bottom_banner.gif" usemap="#navigate_bottom" border="0"> </body> </html>
