    153153On the local and on the remote host, some small helper/utility programs have to be installed, which are later used by '''mrun''' e.g. for PALM data postprocessing. The installation is done by '''mbuild'''. This script requires a configuration file {{{.mrun.config}}}, which will be also used by '''mrun''' in the following. A copy has to be put into the working directory under the name {{{.mrun.config}}} by
    154154{{{
    155   cp trunk/SCRIPTS/.mrun.config.default .mrun.config
    156 }}}
    157 Beside many other things, this file contains typical installation parameters like compiler name, compiler options, etc. for a set of different (remote) hosts. Please edit this file, uncomment lines like
     155  cp trunk/SCRIPTS/.mrun.config.<compiler> .mrun.config
     156}}}
     157Please replace {{{<compiler>}}} with either {{{gfortran}}} or {{{ifort}}} in order to get the default configuration file for the respective compiler. Beside many other things, this file contains typical installation parameters like compiler name, compiler options, etc. for a set of different (remote) hosts. Please edit this file, uncomment lines like
    158158{{{
    159159  #%remote_username  <replace by your ... username>   <host identifier>
     
    161161by removing the first hash (#) character and replace the string "{{{<replace by ...>}}}" by your username on the respective host given in the {{{<host identifier>}}}. You only have to uncomment lines for those hosts on which you intend to use PALM.\\\\
    162162'''Warning: When editing the configuration file, please NEVER use the TAB key. Otherwise, very confusing errors may occur when mrun is executing.'''\\\\
    163 Beside the default configuration file {{{.mrun.config.default}}}, the directory {{{trunk/SCRIPTS}}} contains additional configuration files which are already adjusted for special hosts, e.g. {{{.mrun.config.imuk}}} can be used at Hannover University, etc.. These files have to be edited in the same way as described above.\\\\

    164164After modifying the configuration file, the respective executables are generated by executing

    292292However, this would require to carry out again the complete installation process described above. So far, different versions of PALM cannot be used at the same time. The PALM releases from {{{palm/tags}}} never have to be updated with "{{{svn update}}}", since these releases are frozen! \\\\
    293 After updating the working copy, please check for any differences between your current configuration file ({{{.mrun.config}}}) and the default configuration file under {{{trunk/SCRIPTS/.mrun.config.default}}} and adjust your current file, if neccessary.\\\\
