The linux version should be compiled on your pc (in a terminal, go into the cpp directory and type 'make' without the quotes).

A manual is in production. For the moment, here follows a very short tutorial that should get you started:

• Unzip the Bacon zip file to somewhere rememberable
• Open R and change dir to where Bacon lives
• Load the Bacon R code, typing:
  source('Bacon.R')
• Run the default core + settings (MSB2K):
  Bacon()
• This will run core MSB2K at a default resolution of 5 cm, sample size 1,000
  proxy.ghost(1)
• Now run a core with fewer dates:
  Bacon("RLGH3")
• Do you agree with the proposed model?
