\section{Introduction}

\textsc{quip} depends on \textsc{libAtoms} and \textsc{FoX}.
libAtoms can be obtained from \texttt{www.libatoms.org}.
FoX can be obtained from \texttt{http://www.uszla.me.uk/FoX/}.

As of 1/6/2007, the latest version (2.1.1) of \textsc{FoX} has some
bugs that adversely affect \textsc{QUIP}.  The patch against
\textsc{FoX} to fix the bugs is in \texttt{FoX.2.1.1.patch}.  Please
apply it before compiling FoX by doing 

\begin{verbatim}
cd FoX-2.1.1
patch -p1 < ../QUIP/FoX.2.1.1.patch
\end{verbatim}
