A description of the major differences between the existing IAS version
and the newly released MD version 1.1 (summer 1989):
-
Improved user interface: suntools menu interface at help=8.
The sophistication of the user interface is determined at
compile time through a
number of
compile switches in getparam.c
-
Standardized usage of some standard interactive facilities using
setparam instead of and with help of getparam.
-
Installation through Makefiles is more flexible. The installation
and various administrative
utilities are more streamlined to make porting to
non-SUN's easier.
-
Aarseth's straight N-body code - as published in BT87 is in
nbody0 and an Ahmad-Cohen version in
nbody2 (this last one has not been tested out well enough)
These programs have a NEMO interface, which also handles some
Fortran-C interface questions.
-
filestruct_old is now obscure:
all of Piet's clib programs have been
converted (snaplist, snapenter, snapdist, mkplummer)
-
various new yapp's, the $NEMO/src/nemo/yapp directory has been
cleaned up and documentation has been updated.
-
bodytrans saving: the program bodytrans can be tested and also save
files (-DSAVE_OBJ compile switch) - same for library routines.
-
snapplot and movies work better together; snapplotedit.
-
potcode
-
ds, image display on image(5) or fits(5) files.
-
fortran interface
-
GRAVSIM added to nemo/src tree
-
lars/treecode has been added, but needs a good
recursive fortran compiler. NEMO interfaces built in. Not been able
to test well - Does not work on Suns..
-
The NEMO startup file is now called NEMORC.
-
This expanded manual.
