SEIZMO - passive seismology toolbox for Matlab & GNU Octave
1. What is SEIZMO?
------------------
A set of routines that taken together can aid in learning seismology as
well as reduce the effort required in day-to-day processing and analysis in
seismology research. See the project website for more details:
 http://epsc.wustl.edu/~ggeuler/codes/m/seizmo/
2. Downloading
--------------
2a Get the latest version (as a compressed tarball or zipfile) here:
 https://github.com/g2e/seizmo/archive/master.tar.gz
 https://github.com/g2e/seizmo/archive/master.zip
2b Or grab an older tagged version: https://github.com/g2e/seizmo/tags
2c Or if you have git installed (http://git-scm.com/), you may use it to
 retrieve the latest version:
 git clone git://github.com/g2e/seizmo.git
 and to update to the latest version (within the seizmo directory):
 git pull git://github.com/g2e/seizmo.git
3. Installation
---------------
3a If you went with route 2a or 2b then extract the tarball/zipfile
 somewhere on your filesystem. Next, go into the extracted directory
 and start Matlab or GNU Octave. Finally, run install_seizmo in Matlab
 or GNU Octave. This function will remove any paths from previous
 SEIZMO installs and add paths for the current SEIZMO as needed. Drop me
 a note if you are having trouble with the install.
3b If you went the git route (2c) then move into your new repository
 and open Matlab or GNU Octave. Next, run install_seizmo in Matlab or
 GNU Octave. NOTE: You should run install_seizmo even if you are only
 updating using git because SEIZMO's directory layout changes from time
 to time and Matlab & GNU Octave need to be made aware of this. There
 may be issues during the uninstall phase with git-based updates so you
 might need to clean your path occasionally.
3.1 If you can't download through Matlab and are on Linux/Unix/OSX, you may
 run the bash script setup_seizmo.bash via a terminal to download and
 unpackage external tools for seizmo.
3.2 If you can't or don't want to save seizmo to your paths, you can use
 startup_seizmo and shutdown_seizmo to dynamically use seizmo when you
 want. This is also useful when the functions in seizmo have the same
 name as functions in another package that you are using.
4. Getting Started
------------------
4a In Matlab: Type 'help seizmo' in the Matlab command window. Follow
 the hyperlinks as desired.
4b In Octave: Type 'help <function>' where <function> is the function you
 want help with. There is currently no over-arching help for seizmo in
 GNU Octave because this requires significant effort making info files.
REMEMBER: 'help <function>' or 'help <directory>'
 ex. help install_seizmo
 help cmt
