Qcl for ECS 203

Qcl can be obtained online from: http://tph.tuwien.ac.at/~oemer/qcl.html

Qcl is difficult to compile using gcc/g++ ver. 3.x. Most Redhat systems today have both 3.x and 2.96, with 3.x being the default. It is possible to modify the default Makefile and .depend file to use g++296. Or you can download the precompiled version here

The precompiled version above has been tested with Redhat 7.3, 8.0, and 9.0. It contains the documentation from the official website in the ./doc subdirectory, as well as examples in the ./lib subdirectory.

To install,

Untar the directory: tar xzvf qcl-0.4.3.i686.tgz
Change to the source directory: cd qcl-0.4.3
Become root: su
Install onto your system: make install

Or, if you do not have root permissions, add the qcl-0.4.3 directory to your path.
