Subject: Summary: tar files (Part I)


Dear CCLer's,

        Here is Part I of my summary concerning the conversion of tar files
to usable form.  It is designed especially for those who, like myself, did
not know how to uudecode tar files like the ones e-mailed to us on the CCL
concerning the special announcement about the new Gaussian program which
included a seven part series of program segments (tar.uu files).

        I wish to thank all of you who replied. It was very much appreciated.

Sincerely,
Grant.

On the machine running UNIX you can do following:

   1) Make a directory (say myprog) which you want to be a top of the tree
      of directories for a tar archive
           mkdir myprog

   2) Copy a compressed tar file (i.e., file which has the *.tar.Z or
      *.tar.gz extension, e.g., myprog.tar.Z or myprog.tar.gz)
      to the myprog directory
          

   3) Execute the command:
         a) for a *.tar.Z archive
               zcat myprog.tar.Z | tar xvof -
         a) for a *.tar.gz
               gunzip -c myprog.tar.gz

and the files from the archive will stored under the myprog directory.

Note on uudecoding. If you receive a uuencoded file (sorry....) via e-mail,
i.e.,  a file which has a following format:

begin 644 myprog.tar.Z
M86YI;6%T92YF````````````````````````````````````````````````
M````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````
M-------*and*so*on*------------------------------------------
  .......... many lines like this.
`
end

then you know it is an uuencoded file, i.e., a file, usually binary,
which was converted to a special format so the electronic mail does
not mess it up (plain electronic mail, in principle, would alter most
binary files which contain unprintable characters). To convert the
uuencoded file into an original binary file, you need to save it,
e.g., as myprog.uu, and the use the uudecode program as:
    uudecode myprog.uu
This will recreate the original binary file, myprog.tar.Z in our case.
Sometimes larger uuencoded files are split into smaller messages.
In this case, you need to join all the pieces together in the order
specified, delete all e-mail headers, and leave no gaps. Only then you
can use uudecode. Of course, there are e-mail programs that will do
it for you automaticall, and tools which will make it easier, but
if you do not have them, you still can do it by hand.

No. You did. Just a few days later. I was out of town.

This is a known problem with an outdated dynamic C runtime library.
Upgrade, and the problem will vanish.

Dear Jochen,

Are you compiling on SGI with R10000 chip?  The new MIPSpro F77 compiler
may be buggy. Let me explain why: I have an experience compiling program
FANTOM (refinement and Monte Carlo simulations of proteins) on SGI with
R4400, SGI with R10000 and Cray J90. It compiles with or without optimization
(either partial, or complete) and runs perfectly on SGI R4400, Cray J90 and
SGI R10000 in 32-bit mode. The trouble begins when attempt is made to perform
optimized compilation in 64-bit mode on R10000, i.e. with the "f77 -64 -O2"
or "f77 -64 -O2 -r10000" commands. FANTOM is a ~17000-line code with
2200-line main program fantom.f and subroutines in separate smaller *.f
files. With the set of options quoted above the compiler performs complete
optimization of every subroutine, but only partial optimization of the main
program because of the exceeded size limits. It does not matter in 32-bit
mode: fantom.f is not fully optimized but the executable works fine.
Now the real show begins when I try to run 64-bit version irregardles of
what input file I use:

1) it crashes with "Segmentation fault".
2) it works perfectly when I do either of these:
   2.1) remove  a n y  IF statement from fantom.f
   2.2) replace the contents of  a n y  IF() THEN .... ENDIF statement
        with CONTINUE
   2.3) force complete optimization of fantom.f with -OPT:size_limit
        options
   2.4) recompile it without optimization (option -g)

I really do not want to jump to the conclusion that there is a bug in the
compiler, but this is so far the only logical solution to this puzzle.
FANTOM interprets user commands interactively and there are a lot of IF
statements in fantom.f; is there a limit to the number of IFs in the
partial compilation of F77 code?

Curious,
Robert Fraczkiewicz

A free OpenGL emulator for X called 'Mesa' is available.
(http://www.ssec.wisc.edu/~brianp/Mesa.html)
Most programs written using OpenGL can be linked with
the Mesa library alternatively.
They'll be slow because there's no graphics accelerator.

Information on Lesstif, a free implementation of Motif, is available from
http://www.hungry.com. It's under development. Actually, the only program
that runs with Lesstif without problem is their game program, 'Phaser'.
You'd have to purchase Motif to use Motif-based applications...
