1) LINUX and UNIX (including DEC Alpha and Sun Solaris) machines with the GCC compiler. In this case, the source code of SPECTRUM is distributed. The user must then compile SPECTRUM using MAKE.
2) DEC Alpha Machines with the native C-compiler. Again, in this case the source code of SPECTRUM is distributed and the user must compile it using MAKE.
3) Sun/Solaris machines with the native C-compiler. I have heard that SPECTRUM compiles and runs successfully on Silicon Graphics machines using the Sun makefile.
4) Windows 9x/ME/NT/2000 using the Cygwin tools. The Cygwin tools can be used to set up a virtual UNIX machine under Windows. Recommended!
5) I am also distributing binaries that will run directly in a DOS window under most varieties of Windows. See the page for Windows users for more details.
If you have a platform not listed above, I would be interested in working with you to port SPECTRUM to your platform. Chances are that the port will be relatively easy and straight forward. A requirement is a C-compiler.
The following ports are anticipated in the future (don't hold your breath!)
1) Macintosh/ Power Macintosh
2) ?
