How to install GiNaCRA?

GiNaCRA has been tested under Xubuntu since 11.04, Gentoo, and ArchLinux.

Install the required packages: CMake, CLN, and GiNaC.

We recommend to build the project in a separate build directory. The following installation instructions are based on this recommendation.

Thanks to Joachim Redies, we also provide installation instructions for MacOS X.

The console application ginacraconsole can be built by:

make ginacraconsole

Optionally, the Readline library can be installed to support command auto-completion and history in ginacraconsole.

In order to compile and run our test suite, type:

make check

How to use GiNaCRA?

make help

We listed further information in the README file.
