*** Quick local installation   (Rel 6.3) 

    add the following lines to your .bashrc profile  

    # ORAC init 
    orac_path=~/orac.6_3/
    cd $orac_path/etc
    source ORACRC
    cd 
    # end ORAC init 

refresh the shell by issuing "bash" at the command line to load the profile

*** To build a fresh distribution

    cd $orac_path
    make distro
    N.B. svnversion must show no modifications to make a distro
         revert or commit all modified file  before makeing a distro.
    

*** To run the program tests: 

    To run the examples, cd to $orac_path/tests/ and read the README

    The non-mpi program is run from the command line as:

    orac  < input-file > output-file

    The mpi program is run from the command line as:

    mpirun -n 9 orac_mpi < input-file > output-file

    where orac and orac_mpi are soft-links to the executables in src and
    `input-file' is provided by the user; the input files in the `test'
    sub-directory may be used as templates.

    ORAC needs additional input files: for example, the files for the
    Force Field parameters and the molecule topology; more files may
    be needed, depending on the problem. The files' path must be
    specified in the main input file. See the manual section `Input to
    ORAC' for more info.
