## Compiling and installing ASC on Unix systems

## Setting up ASC from CVS

### Getting and installing the data files

An ASC installation consists of the executables and data files. The basic data is stored in the files: `

- main.con
- buildings.con
- mk1.con
- trrobj.con
- trrobj2.con

` Only the data that forms the `main.con` are checked into the CVS repository. To compile ASC you must get the files printed in itallic. To download them, just call the `getdata` script that is provided and run `configure` and `make`. Alternatively you can download them manually from www.asc-hq.org and place them into `asc/data/`.

They are required for building ASC and will be installed by `make install`.
