Program Installation


Signature is freely available to the EM research community.  To install the program, download the archive for your computing platform and save it to a directory of your preference.  Please note that a directory named "Signature/" will be created once the archive is unpacked, and the program code will reside in that directory.

Linux
Download and unpack the archive (32-bit or 64-bit application), for example,
tar xfv install.Linux32
and the code should be ready to run.

Mac OS X
Download the program and execute the following commands:

tar xfv install.MacOS_X
cd signature
/Developer/Tools/Rez -t APPL -o signature mac.r

In case that the TIFF library is not available on your system,

mv libtiff.dylib /usr/local/lib


MS Windows
Download and unpack the archive (e.g., using WinZip).  If the FFTW library has not been installed on your system, save the file "fftw3.dll" to
C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\ (Windows XP), or
C:\WINNT\SYSTEM32\ (Windows 2000)

Upon completion, a quick test can be conducted to verify the program installation.
