a verification tool for security protocols
by Cas Cremers
(Compiled for Linux i686 environments)
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Note: This is a BETA release, and therefore the usual warnings apply.
1. More information
========================================================================
For more information, see:
http://www.win.tue.nl/~ccremers/scyther
2. Starting out
========================================================================
To start, untar the archive:
$ tar zxvf scyther.tgz
This will produce a directory 'scyther'. Change into this directory.
$ cd scyther
Now run the scyther executable (bin/scyther) with the --help switch,
or try:
$ bin/scyther demo/ns3.spdl
To have Scyther produce graphical graphical output, you need:
- a pdf viewer (xpdf is assumed)
- the GraphViz package (for the 'dot' executable), which can be found
at: http://www.research.att.com/sw/tools/graphviz/
Add the paths 'bin/' and 'demo/' to your path environment variable
(something like 'export PATH=$PATH:$PWD/bin:$PWD/demo'), and try
$ scytherview demo/nsl3.spdl
Many other protocol input files can be found in the SPORE directory.
