Using the DSPCAD Integrative Command-Line Environment: User's Guide for DICE Version 1.1

: This document provides instructions on setting up, starting up, and building DICE and its key companion packages, dicemin and dicelang. This installation process is based on a general set of conventions, which we refer to as the DICE organizational conventions, for software packages. The DICE organizational conventions are specified in this report. These conventions are applied in DICE, dicemin, and dicelang, and also to other software packages that are developed in the Maryland DSPCAD Research Group. This user's guide is supplemented by an overview of DICE and some of its core features, online documentation available in DICE, and various tutorial materials that are available electronically from the DICE User's Guide. Pointers to these resources are available in the Online Supplement.
