Noddy for Windows

The easiest way to create new history files for Noddy remains the Windows version, which can be downloaded from the Tectask Noddy Page

Batch version of Noddy

Run the compile.sh script in the noddy directory and add the generated executable into a folder that is accessible through the PATH environment variable. If you are compiling under cygwin you will need to convert compile.sh to unix from DOS for get the correct end of lines.

pynoddy

For a complete installation into your Python environment, run:

python setup.py install

with suitable rights (on MacOS/ Linux this would mean running it as su, no idea how it works on Windows).

pynoddy for developers

If, however, you want to make changes to the Python modules in the repository, you can only add a symbolic link to the Python environment with:

python setup.py develop

In this case, Python will use the version directly in the github repository!
