bioYALP has been written in Perl, to run it you need a Perl5 (or above)
interpreter. It is usually available via the perl package on GNU/Linux systems.
GNU/Linux, Microsoft® Windows®
and Mac OS®.
The best way to install Perl5 is to use the installation system for your
distribution. Please note you need an Internet connection to use it. If you don't
know how to install softwares, please read the documentation for your distribution.
Ubuntu
Click here to install the perl package. Otherwise,
you can use a terminal:
- Open a terminal
Click on Applicationsi> -> Accessoriesi> -> Terminal.
- Type sudo apt-get install perl
You will be asked to type your root password. On Ubuntu this is the same
password as the one you use to log in. Type this password, even if you don't see
what you type. Press Return.
For other systems, I hope these links will help:
