Utility Programs

Provided with the CNSsolve distribution are some separate utility programs and scripts: Utilities are run from the UNIX command line. The plot_patterson utility must be run on the same platform that the map files were generated on (the CNSsolve map files are binary in this instance).


The full set of utility programs are available:


The utility programs are compiled by default at the time of CNSsolve installation. To compile the executables at some other time, from the main CNSsolve directory type:

make utils

This will create a subdirectory in the appropriate machine architecture directory. This machine specific utils directory is automatically added to the user path upon sourcing cns_solve_env.
