Xraytrace documentation

Xraytrace is now installed only from source code, no stable executables are available. This might change in future.

To get the actual version, checkout it from the repository (you must have access to it first):

cvs -d prutok.cmi.cz:/cvs co xraytrace

You should have the following tools and libraries to get the software compiled:

• gcc
• xraylib
• Nvidia CUDA (if the graphics card support is requested, it can run also without it)

To compile the software, go to the folder xraytrace and run the command

make

The xraytrace binary should be created within the directory.

For visualisation we recommend Paraview and Gwyddion, this is also used in the examples.
