Hi all,

I am trying to install WOLFPSortin order to run EffHunter on my university cluster command line. However, I am having trouble understanding how to install WOLFPSort, specially the first line found in the INSTALLdocument.

Please, do you have a more compleate guide on how to install it? I am not a bioinformatician and not very familiar with the command line. I have tried the git clone but apparently it fails to log in with username and password.

This github repo is public so getting a copy should be as easy as

git clone https://github.com/fmaguire/WoLFPSort.git

If it really needs a github username and access token then you'll need to google how to setup an access token.

You then need to move the appropriate binary/executable from the binaries directory to bin. Probably you are using an intel based machine so the i386 binary is the one you want. You can do this by using the file explorer on your desktop or on the command line it will be something like

cp ~/WoLFPSort/bin/binByPlatform/binary-i386/* ~/WoLFPSort/bin/
