Required

AniComp is currently being developed and tested under Linux, however, thats not to say that it will not run on other operating systems too. In fact, all attempts have been made to keep AniComp as platform independant as possible. As AniComp has been written purely in ISO standard C++, without the use of non-standard, vendor specific extensions, AniComp may be ported to any platform that provides an ISO standard C++ compiler.

AniComp requires a number of supporting libraries.
