Setting up LoRS

• Create a directory for running LoRS:

 $ mkdir lstore

• Copy libxio-0.2.tar.gz and lors-0.82.1.tar.gz from an existing location

 $ cp ~/<directory path>/libxio-0.2.tar.gz <username>/lstore
 $ cp ~/<directory path>/lors-0.82.1.tar.gz <username>/lstore

• Unzip the lors file with the following options:
  • -x (--extract, --get) extracts files from the archive
  • -v (--verbose) lists the processed files verbosely
  • -z (--ungzip) filters the files through gzip
  • -f (--file=ARCHIVE) uses the file named ARCHIVE

 $ tar -xvzf lors-0.82.1.tar.gz

• For a complete option list, use:

 $ tar --help

• Enter the new lors directory and open the README file:

 $ cd lors-0.82.1 ; ls
 $ cat README

• OR open it in an editor like emacs:

 $ emacs README

• Run a configure, make, make install process (as outlined in the README file). set "prefix" equal to your directory of choice: the default is a "local" directory in your PWD

 $ ./configure --prefix=$PWD/local   
 $ make
 $ make install

• Add library to your PATH:

 $ setenv PATH "${PATH}:${HOME}/bin:/lstore/lors-0.82.1/local/lib"

• Run the LoRS setup script:

 $ sh ./lors_setup.sh

• Follow the on-screen instructions and wait patiently!
