PROPA home Download Inputs Outputs Examples

Precompiled binary distributions of PROPA 1.0 for several platforms will be made available here for downloading.
Currently, only the unix version is available; the others will be uploaded very soon.

Download the appropriate copy for the target platform and extract/copy the binary file to a working directory, then set the executable privilege as necessary. No other libraries are needed to run PROPA. Click on the button containing the name of your operating system below to download the relevant version.

  • Windows
    The Windows version is provided as .exe binary directly. Download the file directly to a target working directory. No further installation is necessary.

  • 32 bit Linux
    (Compiled on i386 Fedora Core 4)
    The 32 bit Linux version is zipped into a tar.gz file. After downloading to the target machine, unzip and extract via
    gzip -d propa.tar.gz
    tar -xvf propa.tar
    Then install by simply copying the binary to the target working directory and setting executable privilege if necessary.

  • 64 bit Linux
    The 64 bit Linux version is zipped into a tar.gz file. After downloading to the target machine, unzip and extract via
    gzip -d propa.tar.gz
    tar -xvf propa.tar
    Then install by simply copying the binary to the target working directory and setting executable privilege if necessary.

  • Mac OSX
    (Compiled on Mac OSX 10.3.9)
    The Max OS X version is provided as a disk image file. After downloading, mount the dmg file and drag propa to the target working directory.


The program can be run directly (Windows, Unix or Mac) or from within Matlab or R, taking text file inputs and producing summary text file outputs. The code is self-contained, requires no libraries and has been optimized for speed. A script file interface is available so PROPA can be run from a command window as well as from within Matlab or R.
