A Gap4-package which provides an interface to the software topcom (http://www.rambau.wm.uni-bayreuth.de/TOPCOM/). This interface requires topcom version 1.1.2. It may or may not work with newer version. Communication with older version is most likely not possibly with this software.
To get the latest version of this GAP 4 package pull the corresponding branch from github. Subsequently, issue make install inside the package folder.
The build step will download topcom from http://www.rambau.wm.uni-bayreuth.de/TOPCOM/ and then install it in the subfolder topcom of the package folder of TopcomInterface.
Currently, some functionality of topcom is not yet supported. In particular, this include the command line options -d, -h, -v, cardinality[k], frequency[ k ] and the input-type "chiro".
You can create the documentation for this package by issuing make doc. Tests are executed upon make test.
E-mail me if there are any questions, remarks, suggestions. Also, I would like to hear about applications of this package: Martin Bies, [email protected].
