Linux

System Requirements
This program was implemented on a computer with the following Linux distributions: Ubuntu, Fedora, Mint, openSUSE, Debian, centOS, Arch Linux and Manjaro. The Arch Linux version will also work with Gentoo, but you may need to add a library via terminal command ‘emerge media-libs/jpeg:8 ‘.
Note: With Mint, Ubuntu and openSUSE the display may not quite match the screen. Also, with ArchLinux the calculator is only executable from the command line. With all others double-clicking the icon starts the program. I’m looking at it, but it should be noted that with each installation there are some unique peculiarities in spite of the fact that the same fltk libraries are used with all installations. For the most part, these programs were compiled under the default GUI with IDE Code::blocks.

Obtaining ALAMA Calculator and programs:
To download the files, click on the appropriate link below. NB: You should download this program from this site only. To make sure that sure your download is not corrupted, you should check the SHA1 checksum value for the zipped file before you unzip it and it should match the ones listed below. To get the hash issue the terminal command

“sha1sum path/to/zipped-file”

This will work for all versions of Linux listed below, yielding the current version of ALAMA Calculator (1.1.2).
