===== Downloading and Installing =====
  * Documentation at [[http://www.kitp.ucsb.edu/~paxton/EZ-intro.html]]
  * Readme file at [[http://www.kitp.ucsb.edu/~paxton/README]]
  * tar file of the distribution at [[http://www.kitp.ucsb.edu/~paxton/EZ_3_6_3.tar.gz]] 

==== Downloading ====
On you linux prompt type 

  wget http://www.kitp.ucsb.edu/~paxton/EZ_3_6_3.tar.gz

to download the file.  

==== Unpacking ====

To unpack type

      tar xvzf EZ_3_6_3.tar.gz

This will unpack all the files in a directory ''EZ_3_6_3''.

Switch to this directory:

      cd  EZ_3_6_3

There are a lot of ''._*'' and ''.DS_Store'' files in the different directories.  You can get rid of them with the commands

      find . -name "._*" -exec rm -f {} \;
      find . -name ".DS_Store" -exec rm -f {} \;

==== Setting up compiler ====

=== Physics Computers ===

To set up gcc/gfortran compiler in desired version 4.3.x type

      setup gcc v4_3_1

== Advanced ==

To see what other compiler versions are available, type

      ups list -aK+ gcc

=== MSI SVDL Computers ===

to use gcc/gfortran in desired version 4.3.x type

  module load gcc/gcc432

== Advanced ==

To see what other modules are available, type

  module avail

To see your currently loaded modules, type

  module list

==== Compiling ====

Change to directory ''make''

      cd make

execute the ''makefile'' skript (default) using the ''make'' command

      make

the original version of ''makefile'' uses ''gfortran''.  If that does not work on your computer of platform, you probably have to modify the ''makefile'' (or install ''gfortran'').  

There should now be a version of the EZ executable in the ''run'' subdirectory off the main EZ_3_6_3 directory.  To change to this diectory, do 

      cd ../run

Type 

      ls -latr

to see the files, sorted in reverse order of creation. {{ez_3_6_3.txt|Here is list of files you should have.}}
