Seismic Unix Installation in Ubuntu

Download the installation file from CWP website:  click here to download.

After downloading the file, extract the file, you will get a folder called "src"

Now, Make a Directory, where you want to install Seismic Unix...in my case, i am creating "cwp" directory in home directory:
mkdir cwp
Now move the "src" folder in "cwp" directory:  copy "src" and paste it in "cwp".
mv src /cwp/              if src is in your home directory
Go to src/cwp directory:
cd cwp/src
Then type the following command one by one in terminal: Make sure you are in "src" directory.
echo "export CWPROOT=~/cwp" >> ~/.bashrc
echo "export PATH=$PATH:~/cwp/bin" >> ~/.bashrc
source ~/.bashrc
make install 
sudo apt-get install libx11-dev
sudo apt-get install libxt-dev
make xtinstall 
 Now Seismic Unix is installed in your system if you don't get any error up to now. To check it, run this:
suplane | suximage title="My first test" &
 For any query, please, write a comment..........thank you!

      Seismic Unix(SU) is a terminal base program, we can't create Desktop shortcut.

      To use SU, Using terminal, go to the directory,where you kept your seismic data file,then use SU command according to your objective.

      After installation completed, I could not test it. I received suplane: command not found
      suximage: command not found.
      please what do you advice?

      That means your installation didn't complete successfully. Do the installation again from beginig, take screen shot after every command you run and mail me..

      you can install new version without removing the old version. why keep old version, if you have installed new version?

    This tutorial is awesome. I think that I got the right stuff. But, instead of running "suplane | suximage" anywhere, I had to go to the bin folder and run "./suplane | ./suximage".

    What must be the output of "suplane | suximage". I don't know if the image is right.

      You can do that in two steps:
      1. First, install a Fortran compiler:
      sudo apt-get install gfortran
      2. Now,run this: make finstall

      If you get any error, write here.

      Please, export installation path to bashrc file or try again all the installation steps from the beginning.

      Run the followings:
      echo "export CWPROOT=~/cwp" >> ~/.bashrc
      echo "export PATH=$PATH:~/cwp/bin" >> ~/.bashrc
      source ~/.bashrc

    Hello Ranjeet. Thanks for this useful blog.

    I am pretty new at Ubuntu and I am having troubles installing SU. How can I edit the SU configuration file to my system needs? I keep getting this error:

    brian@Brian-PC:/home/cwp/src$ make install
    Makefile:32: /home/brian/cwp/src/Makefile.config: No such file or directory
    make: *** No rule to make target '/home/brian/cwp/src/Makefile.config'. Stop.

    I have seen some post stating we have to edit the 'Makefile.config' file but I am not sure how to do it. I will be greatly thankful if you could help me with this.

    Thanks in advance!
