PhyloCSF is written in OCaml. This source distribution is divided into a library, CamlPaml, containing generic infrastructure for phylogenetic rate models, and a program implementing the PhyloCSF-specific models and driver program. With additional development, the CamlPaml library will eventually be released as a separate entity, but for now it is just part of this distribution. Here are the steps to build the source: [1] Install the OCaml package manager OPAM http://opam.ocamlpro.com/doc/Quick_Install.html This will install a minimal OCaml toolchain (if not already present on your system) and the OPAM package manager. Once it's installed, initialize your shell environment by running: eval $(opam config env) [2] Install dependencies using OPAM opam install batteries ocaml+twt gsl The gsl package may require you to separately install the GNU Scientific Library (GSL) from: http://www.gnu.org/software/gsl/ On Debian/Ubuntu systems GSL is available in the 'libgsl0-dev' package, and on Mac OS X, 'gsl' is available in both Homebrew and MacPorts. [3] Compile PhyloCSF Now just run 'make' in this directory. This will build and install the CamlPaml library, then compile the PhyloCSF executable and copy it to this directory. You can then use the ./PhyloCSF dispatch script like the examples found on our website, e.g. ./PhyloCSF 12flies PhyloCSF_Examples/tal-AA.fa PhyloCSF should be usable in this way by anyone on the machine/cluster with rx permissions; they don't have to set up OPAM or anything else. PhyloCSF can be started from any working directory. If you want to 'install' PhyloCSF somewhere, you must transplant PhyloCSF, PhyloCSF.ARCH (where e.g. ARCH=Linux.x86_64), and the PhyloCSF_Parameters directory to the desired location.
