=== Prerequisites for Compiling and Running GiBUU ===

 * GiBUU supports the following operating systems:
        * Linux (primary platform, used by most developers)
        * Windows (via Cygwin), cf. [wiki:windows GiBUU on Windows]
        * Mac OS X, cf. [wiki:mac GiBUU on Mac]
        * other Unix-like systems may also work, but are untested
 * GiBUU can be built with one of the following compilers:
        * [http://www.intel.com/cd/software/products/asmo-na/eng/compilers/ Intel Fortran Compiler] (version 10+)
        * [http://gcc.gnu.org GCC/gfortran] (version 4.4+)
        * [http://www.g95.org/ g95]
        * [http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/server-storage/solarisstudio sunf95] (Oracle Solaris Studio 12.3)
        * [http://www.pgroup.com/ Portland pgf95] (version 11.10+)
 * Unsupported Compilers:
        * [http://www.pathscale.com/ekopath-compiler-suite PathScale] ([https://github.com/path64 Community version] 4.x) fails to compile readHAFT.f (missing support for STREAM I/O)
        * [http://www.open64.net/ Open64] (version 5.0 or [http://svn.open64.net/listing.php?repname=Open64 svn] version) fails to compile readHAFT.f (missing support for STREAM I/O)
        * [http://www.absoft.com Absoft] v11.1.3 fails to compile bzip.f90
        * [http://www.nag.com/ NAG] v5.3.854 currently fails to compile Pythia and Jetset (with double precision)
        * [http://www.lahey.com/linux64.htm Lahey] v8.1 is not supported due to missing Fortran 2003 features (GET_ENVIRONMENT_VARIABLE, ISO_C_BINDING, ...)
 * The Build process is steered via [http://www.gnu.org/software/make/ GNU make].[[BR]] 
 * Automated Makefile dependencies are generated via one of the following methods:
        * a Perl script (provided that [http://www.perl.org/ Perl] is installed)
        * [http://personal.inet.fi/private/erikedelmann/makedepf90/ makedepf90]
 * [http://www.bzip.org/ libbzip2] is used for reading compressed input files. For details see [wiki:bzip2 this page].
 * The code is managed and distributed through the [http://subversion.apache.org/ Subversion] version control system.

=== Optional Tools ===
