From version 4.9, RAREMETALWORKER and RAREMETAL source code are distributed within the same package, which can be downloaded in the following:

• The source package for Linux can be downloaded here: for Linux

• The source package for Linux can be downloaded here: for MAC OS X

• The source package for Linux can be downloaded here: for Cygwin64 in Windows

• The source package for Linux can be downloaded here: for MinGW in Windows

For binary executables, we only distribute the one for Linux. For the other platforms, we recommend you build from source code that can be downloaded from above.

• The binary of RAREMETALWORKER to run on Linux can also be downloaded here: RAREMETALWORKER BINARY for Linux

How to Compile

• If you choose to build from the source files, you could start from decompress the package using the following command:

 prompt> tar xvf LINUX_raremetal.0.4.9.tgz
 prompt> cd raremetal_0.4.9

• If you prefer to build two tools all at once, then do the following:

 prompt> cd raremetal
 prompt> make
 This builds RAREMETAL and RAREMETALWORKER under bin/ directory. 

• If you prefer to build individual tool:

 prompt> cd raremetal/raremetalworker/src
 prompt> make
 This will build RAREMETALWORKER under raremetal/bin/ directory.

 prompt> cd raremetal/raremetal/src
 prompt> make
 This will build RAREMETAL under raremetal/bin/ directory.

• If you prefer to use the binary file downloaded above, then no compiling is needed, but it is not guaranteed to work due to system and library requirements.
