How to compile and run on different machines

Having obtained a gzipped tar file of the source e.g. paratec.xxx.tar.gz, unpack the source by typing
gzip -d -c paratec.xxx.tar.gz | tar -xf -

Then enter the paratec directory and run the configuration script by typing
cd paratec
./configure

For a summary of the options accepted by the global Makefile, see Table 1.1 or just type
make

Table 1.1: Options for global Paratec Makefile

Option to make	Function
paratec	Build Paratec
tools	Build related tools
html	Build HTML documentation
microbench	Build microbenchmark for FFTs and MMMs
test	Build debugging and performance tests
clean	Remove object and test files
dist	Change version number and pack into a tar file
dist-pub	above plus removes NMR and TDDFT code

The machines currently supported are listed in Table 1.2 for reference. For each machine, a working directory in the source tree is created e.g. paratec/src/para/machine where the value of machine is given in the second column of Table 1.2. The binary files are placed in paratec/bin/machine. This facility allows the same source tree to be used by more than one machine simultaneously without any conflicts arising between object files.
