If you download linux software from the internet, and find it useful, please put it where others may also use it! Here's how.

Type `umask 022` or `umask 000`. If you use 022, you are volunteering to manage the package; if you use 000, you are inviting others to help manage it.
Download the tarfile to /workspace/ifp-32-1/hasegawa/programs; untar it to create $PACKAGE_DIR; remove the tar file (important!); configure; make all.
Decide where you want the binaries. Reasonable places for programs are /workspace/ifp-32-1/hasegawa/programs/...
- scripts = executes on any machine (e.g., perl, bash scripts)
- bin.`uname` (i.e., bin.Linux) = executes on both ifp-32 and mickey. PLEASE CHECK: ssh mickey; execute code; see if it gives you "cannot execute binary file".
- bin.`arch` = executes only on machines of type `arch`. Type `arch` to see what machine you're on.
- $PACKAGE_DIR/bin.Linux = packages with many binaries should remain in $PACKAGE_DIR, to avoid over-writing similarly-named programs in ../bin.Linux.
Change the installdir variable in your Makefile, according to your decision in part (3). Type "make install" to install, then "make clean" to remove object files and such.

If you have personal working directories that should be regularly backed up, outside of your own home directory, list them here.

Art
- mickey0/akantor
- rizzo1/akantor is itself a backup of svn because it cannot be backed up in the normal way.

Xiaodan
- spot1/xzhuang2/newbaseline
- spot1/xzhuang2/workshop
- c1-15/hasegawa/xzhuang2*
- /workspace/tico0/AED/

On linux, the client is svn, and should be installed everywhere. On windows, download toroisesvn (http://tortoisesvn.tigris.org/) http://artis.imag.fr/~Xavier.Decoret/resources/svn/index.html
