Getting and Installing Phoenix

Phoenix -- Alpha Release

This is free and has been tested on SunSolaris 2.3 and SunOS4.1.3. If you try to install on these or other platforms and get errors, please feel free to contact me for help.

Instructions

Get the distribution phoenix.tar.gz or phoenix.tar.Z.
Files ending with .gz can be expanded with gunzip from Gnu and those ending with .Z can be expanded using the UNIX program uncompress or gunzip.
The links to the current distribution may be purposely broken if a new version is imminent. In such a case, please try again the following day.
Decompress and untar the distribution.
To compile with "cc" type:
```
setenv CC cc
./configure --prefix=/usr/local
make
make install
```
Use setenv CC gcc for compiling with gcc.
This will put the executible binaries in /usr/local/bin and the Tcl scripts in /usr/local/lib/phoenix. Note that Phoenix comes with its own Tcl interpreter so there is no need to install one on your own. (If you have your own, Phoenix will neither make use of it, nor overwrite it.)
There seems to be a bug on some systems in which the math library is not found when phoenix.server is being built. If you get this problem, change to the server directory, re-run the configure and make commands as above.
Phoenix can be configured so that it will understand which URL's correspond to files on your local disk. Edit lines 28-52 of /usr/local/lib/phoenix/config.tcl to tell Phoenix what it needs to know.

To run phoenix, type phoenix.

If you find bugs in Phoenix, please let me know.
