To proceed with the source installation, you should have
the following developers libraries installed:
LEDA, ncurses, and OpenMotif.
You should download a gzipped tarfile containing the whole
software package e.g. lydian-1.3.0.tar.gz.
You can unpack the file by using
gunzip filename
and create a directory LYDIAN by using
tar xvf filename
Go to the root directory of the LYDIAN and read carefully INSTALL.txt. The command
configure --prefix={install-dir}
specifies the location where LYDIAN should be installed. You can also see all options by typing
configure --help=recursive
Then proceed with the installation by using
make
and
make install
After installation a user can start LYDIAN by typing
{install-dir}/GUI/lydian
