Gale code

We request all participants to download and build the Gale code on your laptops before the workshop, in order to maximize time spent on using the code in classroom examples. Link to the code, binaries and associated manual can be found Here.

Walter Landry has put together a "Troubleshooting" PDF that covers some of the common flags users may find when building the code, and suggestions for clearing them. Gale Installation
