Changes on the 7-layer TrimSP version for running on Unix/Linux and NT

• Source code renamed to trimsp7l_tp.F (ok, ok, a bit egoistic...)

• the capital .F extension is necessary to invoke the pre-compiler for handling #if defined... instructions. The output in the .rge files is slightly different for Win and Unix/Linux OS. For Win usually people are using Origin for reading the .rge files, therefore I kept the old output format for Win.

• Replaced all non-standard f77 functions/procedures by f77 standard to compile it on Linux.

• TMR already introduced implicit none instead of implicit variable declaration.

• Use the ranlux random number generator from the CERN library. Requires mathlib to be linked to the program (standard Fortran77 contains a very bad random number generator, the ran(ix) function is DEC-Fortran)

• Fix error in calculation of the Thomas-Fermi reduced energy. This led to wrong numbers in the output file but had no effect on the TRIMSP calculation.

Changes on datmak7l

• source code renamed to datmak7l_tp.F (the capital F is important to invoke pre-compiler processing).

• introduce pre-compiler instructions to distinguish between Win32 and Unix/Linux. In case of Win32 a DOS batch file is created. In case of Unix/Linux a c-shell script is generated (which must be set manually to executable at the moment: chmod a+x <Shell Script Name> before it can be run).

• use implicit none variable declaration.

• Prompting for random number generator seed disabled because TrimSP now uses ranlux which makes its own initialization.

• Output on screen changed from german to english.

• A formatted reading limited the number of particles to 999999 (at least with the f77 compiler on Linux). This is now (14-Jan-2003) corrected.

A Makefile is available (for Unix/Linux only at the moment) to compile and link the programs. Default location for the program is $HOME/bin. If this directory is included in the system's PATH variables the programs can be simply started without entering the directory.

Up to now, I didn't test it on Win32/Unix, only on RedHat Linux.

Installation on Linux:

• define environment variable CVSROOT=/afs/psi.ch/project/nemu/cvsroot

• go to your home directory and checkout the module trimsp: cvs checkout trimsp. The directory simulation/trimsp with subdirectories will be created. Goto simulation/trimsp/src and enter make to compile and link the program. It will create the executables in $HOME/bin. You need the libmathlib.a from the Cern library. Makefile expects it to be located in $CERN_ROOT/lib. If CERN_ROOT is not defined you may change the Makefile to point to the location of libmathlib.a on your system.

• Include $HOME/bin into the $PATH variable.

• The input files are in simulation/trimsp/work. Go to this directory to run datmak and the shell script created by datmak. For running the shell script you must change its mode manually to executable, chmod a+x <Shell script name>. After this you can start it with ./<Shell script name>.
