Espresso is a parallel molecular dynamics program. It uses Tcl (http://tcl.activestate.com) as controlling language to allow great flexibility.
System requirements: Script language: tcl 8.4 or higher OS: Linux, Unix, MacOS X,...
Configure using ./configure Compile using make (must be GNU compatible, on some systems call gmake)
Installation is not necessary, if you set the ESPRESSO_SOURCE and ESPRESSO_SCRIPTS environment variables to the source directory location and to the location of its subfolder "scripts", respectively. In that case Espresso is started via "Espresso" from the source directory.
If you install Espresso, the environment variables do not have to be set. Just make sure, that the installation binary path is included in your PATH variable. Then Espresso can be started as "Espresso" from anywhere.
To clean junk from old compilation runs: make clean
For further details, see INSTALL
To generate documentation (requires doxygen to be installed):
change into the Espresso source directory and execute gmake docu
The documentation is in: HTML version: doc/html/index.html
The Espresso CVS is located on cvsth.mpip-mainz.mpg.de. Currently, there is no anonymous CVS access, so you need a personal account to access CVS. The CVS root is /cvs/cvsroot
You need to tell cvs to access the server via ssh by setting the environment
variable CVS_RSH to ssh. Then you get your private copy by
cvs -d :ext:
This will create a new directory Espresso in the CWD, containing an up-to-date version of Espresso.
