Eran,
the latest version of r8s (1.71) has a Mac OS X binary in the bin/
directory, *not* a Linux one:
dswan at bioinf1[r8s] file ./r8s1.71/bin/r8s
./r8s1.71/bin/r8s: Mach-O executable ppc
If you change into the r8s src/ directory
and type:
make
This will build a version of r8s for Bio-Linux. It will appear in the
src directory. To execute it in situ just type:
./r8s
You can then move this somwhere more convenient.
regards,
Dan
