Binary releases

Precompiled binaries are avaliable for Microsoft Windows and Apple's Mac OS X. The Windows binary has been tested under Windows XP SP3 and the Mac binary was tested under Leopard. These binaries will likely run under newer versions of this operating systems (Windows Vista, Windows 7, Snow Leopard). If you are running one of these newer operating systems we would appreciate knowing if these binaries work or not.

Source code

Since Python is implemented in Python running it from source is fairly easy. Any operating system that supports Python should be able to run STAMP from source. Running from source is the best way to fully exploit and contribute to STAMP. STAMP is dependent on the following libraries:

After you have installed Python and these libraries, extract the source code files to a directory (e.g., C:\STAMP). You can than run STAMP using python STAMP.py.
