Copy the file LiME_parameters_tutorial1 from the $LIME_HOME/tutorial/parameters directory into your test directory.
Start Limeade by typing either limeadeIUE or limeadeNONIUE
depending upon which version of LiME you wish to run. Just a note, the
only difference between these two scripts is the name of the executable to
run which is passed into Limeade. Limeade is otherwise the same.
Once the Limeade main window appears, use the Browse button to
bring up the File Browser. From within the Browser select the file
LiME_parameters_tutorial1 from your current directory. Now open
this file using the Open button. A note, in this browser you must
double-click a selection so it appears as the selection at the top. Then to
exit with this selection click on Choose.
Look at the File Pane and see if the Model and Data files have been found. This is indicated by a parenthetical comment next to the field labels: either (File Found) or (Not a File). Probably the files have not been found, since the $LIME_HOME directory is going to be different for every installation, and the parameter file uses hard pathways rather than the $LIME_HOME environment variable.
Use the Browse.. option to modify the pathways to the model and
data files to reflect where this data is stored on your system. For this
tutorial you want to select model file Rectangle-model.dex and data
file Rectangle-model.dex (Rectangle-model.dat and
Rectangle-model.dat if running LiME without IUE.)
One other aspect of running with and without IUE. The placement of the
origin of the images are different. The parameters OriginPlacement in
the display and reporting pane can be used to select the correct origin.
The parameters file should be all set to run once you have specified the path to the model and data files. Confirm that the method selected is random starts local search and set the number of trials to 1. Then click on the Save & Run button. In several seconds you should see the LiME search display window appear. If you do not see LiME appear, then go to Section 5.2 and read about how to invoke LiME from the command line with the same arguments being used by Limeade in order to get messages from LiME about problems. Also, if you used the synchronized directories in the file Browser, odds are good you selected a path with no filename for the image and that this is causing the error. Go back to the File Pane and enter None in the image file field.
For reference, Figures9 show a snapshot of a
screen for this tutorial. The mostly covered window in the upper right is
the Limeade welcome window. The window on the top left is the Limeade
window in which LiME parameters are edited and from which Lime is run. The
window in the lower right is the search display showing an optimal match
for this rectangle example. Finally, the xterm from which Limeade
was invoked is shown along the bottom. Note how the command line that would
be needed to invoke LiME directly is parroted back to this terminal window.
