How to get source code and documentation
FANTOM/EXDIS is a free software package for academic users, if used
for the purpose of scientific research. "Free" means we do not
charge a fee for obtaining the program, but it is still copyrighted
software
and we require signing a license agreement. A free demo version of
FANTOM
is available for commercial users. Contact Dr. Werner Braun to inquire
about it.
Follow these steps to obtain FANTOM:
- Contact Dr. Werner Braun by e-mail (
webraun@utmb.edu ), or phone (409-747-6810), or fax (409-747-6000)
and get the 'password' for the .crypt file.
- Get FANTOM.tar.Z.crypt by clicking
here.
- Save as FANTOM.tar.Z.crypt into your home directory.
- Unpack on your machine:
crypt 'password' <FANTOM.tar.Z.crypt >FANTOM.tar.Z
uncompress -v FANTOM.tar.Z
tar -xvf FANTOM.tar
This generates a directory "your_home_directory/FANTOM4.2" and the
following subdirectories:
/source containing the source code
/library containing the library files
/doc manual (postscript file)
/ex* examples
P.S. Steps 1-4 above are the only legal way to obtain FANTOM. We do
not have any anonymous ftp servers here distributing the program;
please
do not try to get it this way. Network connections to all our
ports
are very closely monitored and recorded.
