Colimate is implemented using several packages. You can either download the original sources and recompile everything with the appropiate compiler, or download an intermidiate sources where all files are in C++, or download the executing environment and executable files for several platforms.

Original Source

• Colimate source
• Flex++ and bison++
• STL and GNU C++
• Qt
• Doc++

• Easy Colimate C++ Source
• STL and GNU C++
• Qt

• IRIX65
• LINUX

1. Create a directory for the Colimate files

mkdir Colimate ; cd Colimate
2. Uncompress the tar file with the sources (either the easy C++ or the original sources)

tar -zxvf colimate_src.tgz
3. Edit the Makefile and make sure that the FLDIR points to the directory where libfl.a lives and that QTDIR points to where the QT library lives (in RedHat distributions /usr/lib/qt-2.3.1, checkout for QT version).
4. Compile the source code make -f Makefile or make -f Makefile.easy.
5. Copy the binaries colimate_cc and colimate to a directory within the PATH (for instance, /usr/local/bin)

cp colimate colimate_cc /usr/local/bin
 

1. Move to a local directory within the path (usually /usr/local/bin)

cd /usr/local/bin
2. Uncompress the tar file with the binaries

tar -zxvf colimate_<SYSTEM>.tgz
3. Make sure that the directories with the binaries is in the path, if not you can add it with

setenv PATH /usr/local/bin:$PATH
