| XDotsReader software installation |
|-----------------------------------|

In the following, we will suppose that
"dir" is the complete path of the current directory.

      1. Create a folder to copy the software, for
      example COSE, with the command:
	      mkdir COSE

      2. Copy the installation software package
      in this directory
	      cp cose.tar.gz dir/COSE

      3. The file cose.tar.gz is a compress archive file :
	 a. the command to uncompress it is :
	    gunzip cose.tar.gz
	 b. the command to extract it is :
	    tar xvf cose.tar

	    After this 2 first commands, the current directory
	    will contain the following folders :
	    1. bin : contains software executables.
	    2. doc : contains documentation.
	    3. demo : contains images used as example in
	    the documentation

       4. Add the directory dir/COSE/bin in your path
	      export PATH=$PATH:dir/COSE

You can now run the software with the command :
      XDotsReader
