Compiling and installing EMAN

Most users, even 'advanced' users should select a binary install. If the binaries don't work for you for some reason (please [mailto:sludtke@bcm.edu let us know], or if you need to write new low-level image processing functions, then you can resort to a source-based installation.)

EMAN2 uses an increasingly popular approach of writing all of the main compute-intensive image processing operations in C++, but writing all of the user programs, including those with GUIs (graphical user interfaces) in a scripting language called [http://www.python.org Python]. All of these Python level programs can be edited by the end-user WITHOUT requiring a C++ development environment. Note that most users won't want or need even this level of customization.
