This is the recommended way for those who do not want to delve into the mysteries of compiling and linking a great but complex piece of software. Read the (somewhat outdated, it seems) [http://www.ysbl.york.ac.uk/%7Eemsley/coot/coot-faq.html Coot FAQ] to find "Additional Notes" for your operating system.

In short, just go to https://www2.mrc-lmb.cam.ac.uk/personal/pemsley/coot/binaries/release/ and pick a suitable binary, e.g.
coot-0.5-pre-1-revision-1003-binary-Linux-i386-fedora-5.tar.gz for a Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 or CentOS-5 system (Fedora 6 corresponds to RHEL5, thus Fedora 5 binaries are OK). If you prefer a "stable" binary, these are at http://www.ysbl.york.ac.uk/~emsley/software/binaries/stable/.
coot-0.9.4.1-binary-Linux-x86_64-scientific-linux-7.6-python-gtk2.tar.gz for a Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7 (or CentOS-7) or newer system.  


Then un-tar it under /usr/local/src (or in your $HOME), and establish a symlink (ln -s) between /usr/local/bin/coot and the bin/coot of the freshly unpacked distribution.

Installation of coot and all of its dependencies are handled automatically through the autobuild scripts. There are two versions:
Go to https://www2.mrc-lmb.cam.ac.uk/personal/pemsley/coot/web/build-install-coot-from-scratch.html
* [http://www.ysbl.york.ac.uk/~emsley/build-logs/build-it GTK1] - the old user interface. This script builds coot and all its dependencies.
* [http://www.ysbl.york.ac.uk/~emsley/build-logs/build-it-gtk2-simple GTK2] - the new user interface. This script builds coot and most of the dependencies, excluding GTK2.
 
To build Coot, all you should need to do is edit a few settings in the top of the build script, or alternatively specify those settings as environment variables. For example, the following sequence of instructions will build the latest pre-release of the GTK 2 version with python support:
 
wget http://www.ysbl.york.ac.uk/~emsley/build-logs/build-it-gtk2-simple
export AUTOBUILD_INSTALLED=${HOME}/autobuild/coot
export AUTOBUILD_BUILD=${HOME}/autobuild/
export LOGS=$AUTOBUILD_BUILD/logs
export NIGHTLY_DEST_DIR=$AUTOBUILD_BUILD
export STABLE_DEST_DIR=$AUTOBUILD_BUILD
export build_coot_prerelease=1
bash build-it-gtk2-simple python > build.log
(This script works in bash. For tcsh, replace 'export' with 'setenv' and '=' with ' '.
 
In some cases you may need to download additional development packages in order to build all the components.
 
=== Installation from source code manually ===
 
There are also instructions for [[Custom building Coot from source code]].

===Example 6: some basic scripting===
Q: I want to prepare scripts to run coot functions like water picking or rotamer fitting  in command line. Therefore I am looking for some  examples of simple coot scripts, e.g. load  ref.pdb, load ref.mtz, fft create map.
Answer:
<pre>
imol = read_pdb("6vw1.pdb")
imol_map = make_and_draw_map("6vw1/6vw1_refine.mtz", "2FOFCWT", "PH2FOFCWT", "", 0, 0)
find_waters(imol_map, imol, 0, 1.4, 1)
</pre>
