    Downloading a Distribution File

Download an MCOV distribution file for your system 
(Windows or Unix/Linux) from www.mcov.org.  Go to the
Download page, click on the appropriate link, and let 
your browser save the file on your system.

Move the distribution file to an empty directory.

    Unpacking the Distribution

In Windows, unzip the distribution file with a zip 
application or, in a command window: 
  unzip mcov080.zip       (or whatever the filename is)

In Unix/Linux, in a terminal window:
  tar -xzf mcov.0.8.0.gz  (or whatever the filename is)

    Compiling the Program (optional)

The program mcov may be compiled with the command:

  gcc -o mcov mcovaluer.cxx mcov.cxx

gcc is the GNU project C++ compiler; you may need to 
substitute  gcc  with  g++  or  cc  or whatever your
compiler is called.

On Red Hat 9, the gcc command has problems picking the
correct library, so this command is used:

  g++ -o mcov mcovaluer.cxx mcov.cxx

The mcov program (and any program using mcovaluer.cxx)
depend on the header file  mcovaluer.h
