1) Create a working directory and add to your .bashrc file the lines:

export TRK_BIN=/home/your-user/.../your-working-dir/
export TRK_GRND=/home/your-user/.../trk-software-ground/
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$TRK_GRND/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH

then update the .bashrc file:

# cd /home/your-user/
# source .bashrc

2) Create the executables:

# cd /home/your-user/.../trk-software-ground
# make all

(the Makefile is not very sophisticated, to make it run might require some 
adjustments... sorry)

3) Install the programs in your working directory by executing:

# make install

The following files and directory will be created:
   bin-aux/      - (auxiliary files)
   level0.exe    - program to go from RAW to LEVEL0
   level1.exe    -  "       "  "  "   LEVEL0 to LEVEL1
   level2.exe    -  "       "  "  "   LEVEL1 to LEVEL2

The same structure is created in the directory run-test/. Here you can find 
an example (run-test.sh) on how to use these programs (follow the instructions 
in WHAT-TO-DO).

4) IN case you don't need to reduce tracker files, but you need only to use 
LEVEL2 nt-uples to get track information and calculate the particle 
trajectory, you can follow the example in the directory "utilities/template/". 
This is an example on how to access LEVEL2 nt-uples and how to link the 
tracker library ("libtrk.a"; see "doc/libtrk.txt" for more info) in a fortran 
program (template.f).
