Compiling Your Own Version of VMD

If for some reason you want to recompile VMD, then you will need to read the rest of this document. Most users will want to use the binary distributions we provide since they have been thorougly tested prior to release. It may be necessary for you to compile your own version of VMD in cases where we do not provide a binary for your platform, or when the provided binaries will not run correctly with a particular version of your operating system. Full compilation instructions for VMD are found in the online VMD Programmer's Guide: http://www.ks.uiuc.edu/Research/vmd/doxygen/
