HERWIG++ 2.3.1
==============
This is the release of Herwig++ 2.3.1, a multi purpose event
generator for high energy physics.
The Herwig++ distribution contains an adapted version of LoopTools
<http://www.feynarts.de/looptools/>.
Please contact <herwig@projects.hepforge.org> to be added to our
list of users. This will allow you to make full use of the Wiki and
bug tracker at http://projects.hepforge.org/herwig/trac/
BUILD AND INSTALL
=================
Generic installation instructions are in the file INSTALL.
Before attempting to build Herwig++, you'll need to get ThePEG installed.
Herwig++ uses some functions from the GNU scientific library GSL. The
gsl and gsl header files must be available on your system. Usually
they can be found in a package called libgsl-dev.
------
ThePEG
------
Download ThePEG 1.4.1 or later from
http://projects.hepforge.org/herwig/versions
Do not build this package inside the Herwig++ source directory!
$ tar xzvf ThePEG-*.tar.gz
$ cd ThePEG*
$ ./configure --prefix=/path/where/ThePEG/should/be/installed
$ make
$ make check
$ make install
Optional configure switches include --enable-unitchecks for checking
dimensional correctness of physical expressions in the code, and
--with-LHAPDF for linking against the LHAPDF library. See
'./configure --help' for more details.
