Installation
example graph output:
Statistical graph output results for whole genome sequence of four crop species: rice (O.sativa), foxtail millet (Setaria italica), corn (Z. mays), B. distachyon were provided for your convenience. You can unzip the download zip file, and then unzip you will find the beautiful graphs (genome version information was included in the name of each graph).
If you want to try the test data, you can download the data.zip and unzip the file. Then when you run the software, you can use the test data. The test data contains more than 3000 DNA sequences , which take less than 1 second to get analyzed in software GMATA.
Other software needed:
The program is provided as source code. Therefore additional software may require to provide running environment.
For Windows users:
You need to install the lastest "Perl 5 " version 5.x.xx , noting NOT perl 6.
and install R 2 or R 3.0 before use GMATA for your Windows system.
After install Perl 5 , you want to test installation is good or not. You can go to right click "Windows" icon in the far left bottom to choose "run" and then type "perl". If you can see a welcome message of perl, it means that you are successfully installed Perl. Otherwise, you have to set Perl to environment variable in Windows. alternative you can double click Perl icon in your desktop to make sure it is correctly installed.
After installing R, you want to go to right click "windows" icon in the far left bottom to choose "run" and then type "R". If you can see a welcome message of R, it means that you are successfully installed R. Otherwise, you have to set R to environment variable in Windows.For Linux and Mac users:
Linux and Mac OS already have Perl installed , so you may not need to install any software of computing language. For the other dependent packages, please refer to manual of GMATA.
I am updating the manual and hopefully a new version will be available soon with more details.
If you have any question, please do not hesitate to contact with me or get the section of "Discussion" at sourceforge.net.
