To INSTALL
Most users can directly build the minDisj program from the generated C file.
Users interested the minDisj file will need to install the ATS language, which has a style similar to StandardML.
Once minDisj is built, consider adding the following to your startup.m file (in UNIX, this should be in ~/Documents/MATLAB/), or run it before each use of FALCON:
addpath(genpath('MY_FALCON_DIRECTORY'));
This will be especially useful if you plan on running analyses similar to those found in the publication; otherwise, the top-level directory should suffice.
