This manual is intended to help you build your own design repository that is capable of utilizing RVX.
This method creates the design repository by forking an existing one.
This method is supported only on Linux.
All results produced using RVX are subject to the following conditions:
They must not be used beyond the predefined purpose and scope specified in advance for a particular class or research project.
They must not be distributed to third parties other than the designated users or organizations.
They are free for non-commercial research use, provided that the paper is cited. All other uses require prior approval and a technology transfer agreement.

Any part starting with # should be replaced or modified according to your environment.
On Linux, use the bash shell for command-line operations.
