Source code

svn co https://tinkercell.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/tinkercell tinkercell

For building the project from the source code, you will need to install:
      1. Qt 4.5.0 or higher (there may be compile issues with older versions of Qt)
      2. CMake (cross-platform make)

Run the CMake-gui that is located inside the CMake directory. Specify the Tinkercell/trunk folder as the source folder and Tinkercell/trunk/BUILD (create it) folder as the Build folder. Run "Configure" and then "Generate" to create the makefile or project file. Then just run make or open the project file. For linux, you need other dependencies: libxml2 and libx11-dev
