Installing Trimaran on Linux

Installing Trimaran from source

Finally , we can proceed with the actual installation. Create a directory called "trimaran" in your home directory , and unpack the downloaded source in this directory.

After this , we proceed with the actual installation. If all the previous steps have been followed to the tee, then this should be the easiest part! "cd" into the trimaran source directory, and execute the following commands. Note: Its a good practice to read the README file in source directories before mucking around with the installation. 
[user@host ~/trimaran]$./install | tee  -a install.log
The installation will now commence, with the entire log being stored in the "install.log" file. It should take a reasonably long period of time for compilation. So, in the meantime, a coffee would be an excellent idea.

If the installation has finished without displaying any error messages, you are done! The software can be executed by running "trimaran-gui" from the "bin" directory in the trimaran installation directory.

Note:In case installation hasn't been smooth, and you've had mile-long error messages, this would be a good opportunity to test your problem-solving skills. Of course, if you are feeling lazy, mail the trimaran users list or mail me your error messages.
