Downloading TPS and ETPS


What do I need to run TPS or ETPS?

ETPS is a subsystem of TPS and is distributed with TPS.

TPS has been used extensively under Unix and Linux systems, and to some extent under Windows. Instructions for installing TPS are distributed with TPS as README.unix, README.gnuclisp, and README.windows.txt text files. The instructions for Windows installation have been developed for WINDOWS 98 and ME (2000) and may not apply to other versions of Windows.

You'll need a Common Lisp compiler (we've used Allegro CL, CMU CL, GNU CLISP, Kyoto CL, Lucid CL, Ibuki CL, DEC-20 CL and Austin Kyoto CL), and sufficient memory (the compressed tar file occupies over 6Mb; the compiled core image will be in the region of 9-30Mb depending on your compiler). A few features of TPS (but nothing essential) will work only if you have XWindows.

The entire system comes as a single gzipped tar file, over 8Mb long. After you have the files, you will need to compile them using the Common Lisp available on your own system. Instructions for compiling the files are included in the documentation, which is included in several postscript files in the system distribution.

Questions about TPS and ETPS should be directed to Professor Peter Andrews, Department of Mathematical Sciences, Carnegie Mellon University, Pittsburgh, Pa. 15213, U.S.A. andrews@cmu.edu andrews@cmu.edu.
