SPIM: UC Berkeley's version of SPIM for Linux
Downloading: To download Red Hat Linux package files (files whose names end in .rpm) to your /tmp directory from Netscape, right-click on the link and select "Save Link As..." Then specify the /tmp directory to save the files.
For Red Hat Linux systems: Copy spimsal-4.4.2UCB-2.i386.rpm to your /tmp directory, and then run the following command as root:
# rpm -Uvh /tmp/spimsal-4.4.2UCB-2.i386.rpm
You can remove the /tmp/spimsal-4.4.2UCB-2.i386.rpm file when this is done.
Please note that this package should work on both Red Hat 6.x and 7.x systems.
For other Linux systems: You may be able to convert this RPM package into a package for your distribution by installing the Alien package converter (http://www.kitenet.net/programs/alien/). Then follow the instructions pertinent to your distribution.
