The TREEPAR Program 1.Mar.88
Written by Jim McBeath (jimmc) at SCI
This is version 1.1 of TREEPAR.
TREEPAR is a place and route (and plot) package for tree structured
data. It is primarily intended as a companion program to GENEAL,
a genealogy program.
NOTE: Treepar uses the SPIN package (Simple Programmable INterface).
If you don't have it, you won't be able to build treepar.
Files of interest:
*.[ch] The source files for treepar.
Makefile Exactly that.
README What you are looking at right now.
treepar.n Source for man page. Describes (briefly) what
treepar is all about. Gives list of switches.
Use "make man" to create treepar man file (treepar.man).
sample.tf A sample file output by geneal, to be read in and
plotted by treepar.
What to do (after unpacking):
1. Use "make man" to create treepar.man from treepar.n. Read it.
2. Edit the Makefile and set SPINDIR to point to the directory containing
the spin files (xalloc.h, spin.h, spin.a, llib-lspin.a.ln).
By default this is ../spin.
If you do not have X10, you will have to disable the X driver.
Do this by removing "-DX10" from the CCOPTS line in the Makefile.
You may also wish to change the default arguments to the NPlot
command in main.c.
If you DO have X10, you will need to change the XINCDIR and XLIB lines
which define where the X files are located.
3. Make the program. You should be able to simply issue a "make" command.
4. Run treepar and test it on the sample data file with the following
commands (you enter the stuff after the ">" prompt):
>TVersion
STRING treepar v1.1 1.Mar.88
>NRead "sample.tf"
INT 1
>Rpar
INT 1
>NPlot
INT 1
>quit
5. Send me your comments, wishes, and improvements.
Treepar has been run on a SUN3 under Sun OS3.4, and on a VAX under BSD4.2.
If you have problems running on other systems, please let me know.
