Although it is also available as a seperate distribution, its source code is contained within the sedflux repository. To browse the repository, point your browser to: http://csdms.colorado.edu/viewvc/sedflux/?root=sedflux Command-Line Access If you plan to make changes, use this command to check out the code as yourself using HTTPS: <geshi lang=bash> Project members authenticate over HTTPS to allow committing changes. svn checkout https://csdms.colorado.edu/svn/sedflux/ </geshi> When prompted, enter your CSDMS Subversion password. Non-members may only check out a read-only working copy of the project source. To obtain a CSDMS Subversion account or to become a member of this project, please email csdms@colorado.edu. GUI and IDE Access This project's Subversion repository may be accessed using many different client programs and plug-ins. See your client's documentation for more information.
