These are instructions for how to install software and data used on the course Computational Molecular Evolution (22115) when using the Linux operating system.

The commands assume you are using the apt package manager used on e.g. Ubuntu Linux.

Note (ARM CPUs): These instructions assume an Intel/AMD (x86_64) CPU. If you are on an ARM-based machine: Apple Silicon (M-series) Mac users should follow the macOS instructions instead — everything works there. Running these Linux instructions on genuine ARM hardware (e.g. ARM Windows via WSL) is uncommon; most tools still work, but a few precompiled programs (notably PAUP*) have no ARM build. If this applies to you, please get in touch and we will find a working setup. 

# Use the out-commented commands below if you want to copy my premade .bashrc file for customising bash
# WARNING: do not owerwrite a pre-existing .bashrc unless you are sure it contains nothing you want to keep
# NOTE: if you are using a different shell, then you should use the corresponding .rc file (e.g., .zshrc for zsh)
# wget https://teaching.healthtech.dtu.dk/material/22115/bashrc.txt
# mv bashrc.txt ~/.bashrc

# Compiler, make, other system tools needed below
sudo apt-get install build-essential

# Java
# NOTE: install the JDK (not just the JRE): its headers are needed to build BEAGLE's
# Java/JNI plugin below, which is what lets BEAST use BEAGLE. The JDK also runs the
# Java-based tools (BEAST, jModelTest, Tracer, ...).
sudo apt install openjdk-17-jdk

# Nedit
# NOTE: you can use any plain-text editor you prefer
sudo apt update
sudo apt -y install nedit

# MrBayes + BEAGLE library (the BEAGLE library is shared with BEAST X, see below)
#
# We build the BEAGLE library (CPU-only) into /usr/local, then build MrBayes against it
# with MPI enabled (one MCMC chain per core) and SSE kept ON. BEAGLE is built with its
# Java/JNI plugin so that BEAST X further down uses this SAME library automatically.
# Linking MrBayes to BEAGLE also removes the need for the old --disable-sse workaround.
#
# Build tools + MPI library
sudo apt -y install git cmake build-essential libopenmpi-dev openmpi-bin
#
# 1) Build and install the BEAGLE library, CPU-only, with Java/JNI (so BEAST can use it)
# (this looks up the latest RELEASED BEAGLE version, so the instructions need no updating)

# 2) Build and install MrBayes with MPI + BEAGLE
