- The models Planet Simulator, PUMA and the postprocessor Pumaburner
- can be compiled and run with Windows if you have a FORTRAN-90
- and a C++ compiler installed (e.g. GNU FORTRAN and GNU C++).
- The GUI (Graphical User Interface) and MoSt (Model Starter)
- are written using the Xlib (X11) library and cannot run
- with native Windows.
- There are following solutions:
- 1) Install a X11 emulator (e.g. the free Cygwin X11).
- I've heard from users, that they got it to work with the models.
- 2) Install a Linux in a virtual machine like "Parallels" or "VMware".
- Then use the virtual machine for running the models.
- 3) Install Linux (e.g. OpenSUSE 11.2) on your Windows-Computer.
- It can coexist with Windows and installs a boot manager, that
- enables switching between Linux and Windows at boot time.
- Solution 3 is the cheapest (for free) and fastest solution.
- Please don't ask Windows related questions via email,
- we don't support Windows!
- But you may open a thread on our forum
- http://www.mi.uni-hamburg.de/Forum.5807.0.html
- if you want to discuss with other Windows users.
- If there is a skilled Windows-programmer, who successfully programs
- a Windows-GUI for our models, I'll include that version in
- fortcoming releases too.
