IMPORTANT NOTICE: please read the following lines before continuing with installation
pycam currently offers two GUI versions:
1) Tk interface:
This version was the only option up to v0.1.x. It implements almost all
available features, but it is not very convenient. The Tk interface will
probably be removed in future versions of pycam.
2) GTK interface:
The GTK interface is a recent development. It will replace the Tk interface
in the long term. All features are available.
Add the commandline switch "--tk" if you want to use the Tk interface instead
of the default GTK interface.
Please verify below, that you install the specific requirements for the GUI of
your choice.

Unix:
-----
Install PyOpenGL, Togl, Glut using your package manager.
Or compile from source:
http://downloads.sourceforge.net/pyopengl/PyOpenGL-3.0.0.tar.gz
In case Togl is not available or not working, I suggest to compile Togl yourself.
http://downloads.sourceforge.net/togl/Togl2.0-src.tar.gz
Install the source packages for tcl and tk using your package manager.
cd ~/Togl2.0
./configure --prefix=/usr --exec-prefix=/usr --enable-threads
make
make install
or, failing that, for download the sources for the same version of tcl and tk
as you have installed on your system:
(http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=10894&package_id=10452)
Togl only needs access to a few header files that are not part of the
binary distributions...
I unpacked the tcl and tk sources next to the Togl sources in my home directory, then
cd ~/tcl-8.5.5/unix;
./configure
cd ~/tk-8.5.5/unix;
./configure
cd ~/Togl2.0;
./configure --with-tcl=$HOME/tcl-8.5.5 --with-tk=$HOME/tk-8.5.5 \
--prefix=/usr --exec-prefix=/usr --enable-threads
make
make install
Hint: installing 'python-psyco' will probably speed up processing speed.
For ubuntu:
(assuming you have tcl8.4, if not, replace 8.4 by 8.5 below)
Minimal requirements for non-GUI mode
=====================================
If you plan to use PyCAM only in batch mode (without a graphical user
interface), then you just need to install Python.
See the manpage (man pycam) or the output of "pycam --help" for further defails.
install the packages "tcl8.4dev" and "tk8.4dev" (and maybe "Freeglut3-Dev" and "libxmu-dev")
./configure --with-tcl=/usr/share/tcltk/tcl8.4/ --with-tk=/usr/share/tcltk/tk8.4/ --enable-threads
