Installation instructions for ESPAM
===================================

Automatic Installation
----------------------
You can use the BASH script named `setup.sh` (exists in the same directory as this file) to install espam automatically. This can be done by executing the following commands:

	mkdir espam
	cd espam
	wget http://daedalus.liacs.nl/espam/release_20120207/setup.sh
	chmod +x setup.sh
	./setup.sh JAVA_VM_PATH

where JAVA_VM_PATH is the path to your Java VM installation. On Ubuntu, you can find Java installations under /usr/lib/jvm/

If, for any reason, setup.sh does not work. You still can install espam by following the instructions below.
