00102 Installation.</h2>
00103 To build the executable, just type make. The name of the executable is
00104 Shear.
00105 <p>This program does not need any external library. The library used to
00106 read the parameters file is included with the sources : it is contained
00107 in the parlib directory.
00108 <p>In order to use the software, you need a parameter file (s.par for instance),
00109 containing the physical and numerical parameters,
00110 <br>and a file containing the initial shape of the free surface (file.init).
00111 <p>Here is an example of parameters file : <a href="example.par">example.par</a>.
00112 <p>Here is an example of initial condition file : <a href="example.init">example.init</a>.

00115 <h2>
00116 Output files.</h2>
00117 Two types of files are produced by the program :
00118 <ul>
00119 <li>
00120 .<b>xmgr files</b>. They contain columns of real numbers, for instance
00121 the coordinates of the points on the free surface. Each set is ended by
00122 a "&" which allows xmgr or gnuplot to separate the sets.</li>
00123
00124 <li>
00125 <b>.datb file. </b>Popiplot can read these files.</li>
00126 </ul>
