HP/UX binaries are available from the HP/UX Porting and Archive
Centre at <URL:http://hpux.csc.liv.ac.uk/>. Search for "fly"
and look under the X11/Graphics section.
Because some users have reported difficulties in retrieving fly
by ftp, due to slow internet links, I have created an autoresponse
system where the fly distribution can be mailed to you.
To obtain fly via email, send a message to
auto-mailer@www.unimelb.edu.au with no subject, and the
following line (exactly) in the body
of the message:
send <filename>
where <filename> is one of the filenames above
(e.g. fly-1.6.5.tar.gz, fly-1.6.5.exe,
fly-1.6.5.SunOS-5.4-sun4d.tar.gz etc.)
Note: Do NOT send HTML mail to this
address. Heck, don't send HTML mail to any address! But I
digress. If you do send HTML mail, you'll just have to do it again
the right way.
If you have obtained fly-n.tar.Z or
fly-n.tar.gz, enter the following commands at the unix
prompt:
- uncompress fly-n.tar.Z or gunzip
fly-n.tar.gz
- This will decompress the compressed archive.
- tar xfv fly-n.tar
- This will un-tar the archive, placing its contents
in a directory called fly
- cd fly-n; make
- If all goes well, this will compile the program
giving you an executable called fly
If you have obtained the NT/Win95 zip file, fly-n.WinNT.zip,
enter the following command at the DOS prompt:
- pkunzip -d fly-n.zip
- This will unzip the archive. Note: it is
essential that you use the -d
switch to force pkunzip to create the necessary
directories.
Windows users can also use WinZip
to extract the files with all the compression formats used on this page
including zip, tar, and gz.
If you have obtained the NT/Win95 binary, fly-n.exe, no
installation is necessary.
If you obtained one of the precompiled binaries, enter the following
commands:
- gunzip fly-n.OS.tar.gz
tar xfv fly-n.OS.tar
If you are attempting to compile from source and don't have gcc, you
will get an error message along the lines of 'gcc: command not
found' and make will exit. Just change the lines in the Makefile
and the Makefile in the gd1.2 directory that read:
CC = gcc
to:
CC = cc
and it should work. If it still doesn't compile, try one of the
pre-compiled binaries, or contact me.
Hans Schrader <hans.schrader@geol.uib.no> has written a Guide
to getting fly and Matt Wright's Counter script working on Win95 with
Perl32.
