 ===== The TreeParameter class ===== ===== The TreeParameter class =====
-The TreeParameter class provides a mean to implement parameters in SpecTcl in a tree-like structure and without the need to specify parameter identification numbers. The parameters are referred to by their names only, which at the same time indicate their location in the tree. This reference mechanism is valid for both the coding part of SpecTcl (C++ code) and the interpreter part (Tcl/Tk shell). It eliminates the confusion induced by the use of numerals to refer to the parameters, and allows the user to organize the parameters in a logical fashion.+The TreeParameter class provides a means of implementing parameters in SpecTcl in a tree-like structure and without the need to specify parameter identification numbers.

 ===== S800 SpecTcl deployment ===== ===== S800 SpecTcl deployment =====
 +This section describes the procedure and scripts (Makefiles) to create a tar file with the S800 SpecTcl source files that any user may need to run S800 SpecTcl by themselves. This tar file contains:
 +
 +  * "Control" SpecTcl files (e.g. SpecTclControl.tcl, SpecTclInit.tcl, SpecTclRC.tcl etc.)
 +  * **/src** subdirectory with source cpp and h files, Makefile, and libnumreclite.a library from Numerical Recipes
 +  * **/Windows** subdirectory with standard SpecTcl windows files
 +  * **/Definitions** subdirectory with file s800xdt.tcl spectra definition file.
 +
 +
 +The procedure to deploy this software works as follows:
 +
 +  - Connect to s800 account, preferably from u6pc5.
 +  - Check that the environment variable SPECTCLDEPLOY is well defined: ''echo $SPECTCLDEPLOY'' should give you **/user/s800/s800spectcl_deploy**. If that's not the case, edit .bashrc and define the variable (make sure to source .bashrc afterwards).
 +  - Go to **/user/s800/s800develop/** and remove directory **s800spectcl** 
 +  - Clone the master branch from the remote repository: ''git clone git@git.nscl.msu.edu:pereira/s800spectcl.git -b master'' (NOTE: the deployment of this repository is password protected. Contact Jorge Pereira (pereira@nscl.msu.edu), Ron Fox (fox@nscl.msu.edu), or Giordano Cerizza (cerizza@nscl.msu.edu) for help)
 +  - Type ''Make -f Make.s800 Deploy''. This Makefile does the following:
 +              - Goes to subdirectory **/libnumrec**, runs make clean, and make LIBLITE (to clear objects and create library libnumreclite.a and moves the library to the **../src** subdirectory 
 +              - Creates deployment directory defined in **SPECTCLDEPLOY=/user/s800/s800spectcl_deploy**, along with subdirectories **/src**, **/Windows** and **/Definitions**. 
 +              - Moves "control" tcl files from Main directory into **/user/s800/s800spectcl_deploy**, along with files from **/src** directory; SpecTcl windows files to **/Windows** and s800xdt.tcl to **/Definitions**.
 +              - Compresses directory **/user/s800/s800spectcl_deploy** (''tar -zcvf $(HOME)/s800spectcl_deploy.tar.gz $(SPECTCLDEPLOY)'')
 +              - Removes **/user/s800/s800spectcl_deploy**
 +  - The compressed file s800spectcl_deploy.tar.gz is located in the home directory **/user/s800** and can now be distributed to any user
