SUMMARY
- A/ REQUIREMENTS
- B/ COMPILING INSTRUCTIONS
- C/ WHERE IS THE MANUAL?
A/ REQUIREMENTS
Velvet should function on any standard 64bit Linux environment with
gcc. A good amount of physical memory (12GB to start with, more is no luxury) is recommended.
B/ COMPILING INSTRUCTIONS
Normally, with a GNU environment, just type:
make
For colorspace Velvet replace that command with
make color
Otherwise compile each *.c file separately, then execute the default instructions at the top of Makefile.
C/ WHERE IS THE MANUAL?
If you cannot find the PDF manual in the source directory (probably because you downloaded Velvet through git), you can simply compile it:
make doc
