UNIX Loading Instructions for CMPR

Here is an outline of the steps needed to install CMPR on your computer. Report problems to Brian Toby.

To use CMPR on another type of computer, you will likely have to edit the file src/Makefile and then use the command make make. If you don't have access to FORTRAN compiler, you can download and use the binary versions of the FORTRAN programs for SGI and LINUX, which are included in the following tar files. Download the appropriate file and expand it in the same directory as before (zcat cmpr_sgi_binary.tar | tar xvf - or zcat cmpr_linux_binary.tar | tar xvf -)

CMPR is written by Brian H. Toby of the NIST Center for Neutron Research.  Small FORTRAN programs used in CMPR contain routines borrowed from lots of sources: The reflection generation code traces back to the NIST AIDS*83 (C. Hubbard, J. Stalick, A. Mighell & others), space group extinctions from NRC symmetry codes (A. C. Larson) and peak fitting uses GPLSFTA (D. Cox, W. Hamilton, L. Finger & many others).
