CAPGADGET V0.920 (Beta Released 3/22/2002)
Mirror at: CAPGADGET
Simulation from cluster initial condition file supplied with Gadget-1.1
CAPGADGET is a plug-in
and graphical browser for the serial version of the cosmological N-body/SPH
Gadget-1.1 NBODY simulator.
CAPGADGET is released under the
GNU license. It is written in C using
SDL, FreeType2
, and SDL_ttf
. It should compile and run in
Linux , UNIX® , Win32, MacOS, MacOS X, Amiga
OS, BeOS or any other environments supported by
SDL . I have personally built and tested
CAPGADGET using CYGWIN and
RedHat Version 7.1 and 7.2 .
Requirements:
A C compiler (Windows CYGWIN GNU and Redhat Linux 7.X prebuilt
binaries will be available for download soon)
A Computer (This is helpfull) Note that CAPGADGET is graphics intensive
2meg+ graphics cards work
The following FR
EE software must already be installed
(click on the link for download and installation):
Gadget-1.1 (Version
1.1)
FreeType2
(Version 2.0.6)
SDL
(Version 1.2.3)
SPD
(Parts needed by CAPGADGET are already included)
zlib (Included
with CYGWIN and most Linux/UNIX versions. Used to read/write gzipped files
Lastest Version is 1.1.3)
Optional free Software:
pjBmp2Avi
(An excellent utility that can create AVI,
Microsoft Video 1, MPEG-1, and several other codec movies from bmp files
created by
BROWSE GADGET's autocapture
screen option)
Note the current version of
CAPGADGET usage of
FreeType2 will require that you have TrueType fonts installed.
Windows and Macs have these preinstalled.
The location of the font files is configurable. I will TRY to include some
default non-copyrighted fonts for Linux. CAPGADGET is still in it's infancy
and contains numerous undocumented features aka BUGS.
