1. More information
========================================================================

For more information, see:

  http://www.win.tue.nl/~ccremers/scyther


2. Starting out
========================================================================

To start, run the scyther executable (scyther/scyther) with the --help
switch, or try

  $ scyther/scyther demo/ns3.spdl

For graphical output, you need:

- a pdf viewer (xpdf is assumed)
- the GraphViz package (for the 'dot' executable).

Add the paths 'scyther/' and 'demo/' to your path environment variable
(something like 'export PATH=$PATH:$PWD/demo'), and try

  $ scytherview demo/nsl3.spdl
