This is the README file for Coxeter version 3.0.

This file mostly contains practical hints for the compilation and installation of the program. For a detailed overview of the program, its capabilities and limitations, see the INTRO file.

The program needs access to help files and to Coxeter matrices. The locations of these files are described in directories.h. The default setting is that they are in the directory where the program is being executed.

In order to access most of the "help" for individual commands, you should first pick a Coxeter group (by typing "type" and then (for instance) "A" and "1". Then type "help" and the name of a command.

Debugging is enabled by default; to avoid this (and make the program run much faster) say "make optimize=true".
