Command line gamma test

The "DOS" directory contains the executable program (gammatest.exe), two sample data files (henon3.asc and sunspot.asc), and three plain text control files (with the extension .src) to give an idea of how to use the program. As an example, entering

"gammatest sunspot.asc"

at the command prompt in this directory will run the gammatest with the options outlined in the the file "sunspot.src". I recommend looking at the contents of the control files to get an idea of what you can do with them.

The "UNIX" directory contains the same control and data files as the "DOS" directory, but also contains the source code. To build the program, enter

"make depend all"

at the command prompt in this directory. The Makefile assumes that the g++ compiler is installed, and that the include files for g++ are installed in /usr/local/freeware/include/g++ If this is not the case, you may need to edit the Makefile.

The software is supplied “as is” for researchers. We simply ask that if you publish results based on using this software you give us an acknowledgement.

This is exactly the software we have used ourselves for the last several years. Unfortunately, we are not in a position to offer support (other than the odd word of encouragement).
