Once installed, this directory contains CMakelist.txt, Makefile.pkg and a small program that you could use as a template when writing your own analysis software. The CMakelist.txt can be used together with cmake to build the template program: $ source /path/to/GMXRC $ cmake /path/to/template The Makefile.pkg can be used if cmake is unavailble. It makes use of pkg-config only to build the template program: $ source /path/to/GMXRC $ make -f Makefile.pkg ---------------------------------------------------------- If you are reading this in the distribution directory, remember that CMakelist.txt.template will be renamed to CMakelist.txt during the installation.
