Original VITO was orignially available for both UNIX and DOS machines. (The DOS version used EZ-GCC. More information can be found at http://www.delorie.com .)

It is now only supported on Posix (UNIX/Linux/cygwin) environments.

The source code includes a makefile and is written in C. To compile VITO requires a C compiler and the language tools flex and Bison.

Assuming your computer has these (as Linux and cygwin usually do), it is easy to install version 3.1 (or later).  After downloading the vito31.tar file, you need to tar -xf vito31.tar .  Then do cd vito31 followed by make; optionally you may test your installation with ./testinstall. 

  • DOS
  • Executable:
  • The DOS versions are 16-bit executables, and only work under older (16- or 32- bit) versions of Windows at a command prompt. Versions 1.1 and 1.2 use the code generation documented in Verilog Digital Computer Design.
