For more information about the LASSPTools, see

VMD needs three programs from it for matrix mathematics.  They are

Det     -- compute the determinate of a matrix
Eigen   -- compute the eigenvalues and eigenvectors
Invert  -- compute the matrix inverse

To set things up for VMD:


1) Get the appropriate (binary) LASSPTools distribution from
ftp://lassp-ftp.msc.cornell.edu/pub/

2) uncompress and untar it

3) Copy the appropriate binaries to the vmd lib/LASSP directory, like
this:

  cp $LASSP/bin/Det ./Det_$ARCH
  cp $LASSP/bin/Eigen ./Eigen_$ARCH
  cp $LASSP/bin/Invert ./Invert_$ARCH

 (For example, assuming the distribution expanded to ./bin and this is
Linux

  cp ./bin/Det ./Det_LINUX
  cp ./bin/Eigen ./Eigen_LINUX
  cp ./bin/Invert ./Invert_LINUX
 )

4) If you want to save multiple architectures of LASSPTools in this
directory, you might want to do something like "mv bin bin_$ARCH" (eg,
"mv bin bin_IRIX5").
