  2. run createLookUpTables.cam.pl
  3. Copy ModuleData?.cam.txt to ModuleData?.txt
  4. Copy XmlSummaryFile.cam.txt to XmlSummary?.txt
  5. Set the environment variable NMODULES to the number of modules you want to test (or a very large number for all of them)
  6. type "make run" or possible "make -i run"
  7. Look carefully at the output for any problems.
  8. Do not release if there are any problems not understood or in the IOTests directory!
