Glove was designed as a flexible tool to address a number of issues. We needed a generic plotting tool, an interface to data acquisition systems, sophisticated (and correct) statistical analysis, and the ability to easily and intuitively manipulate the data we had. The on-line help explains all the features of the program.
On MacOS, this program requires XQuartz, the X11 server. Before running this program, you must first start XQuartz.
For macOS, the easiest way to install is via Homebrew:
brew install --cask xquartz
brew tap jafl/jx
brew install jafl/jx/glove
For all other systems, download a package:
If you download a tar, unpack it, cd into the directory, and run sudo ./install
.
Otherwise, put the program (glove
) in a directory that is on your execution path. ~/bin
is typically a good choice.
- Install the JX Application Framework, and set the
JX_ROOT
environment variable to point to itsinclude
directory. ./configure
make
