Before installing the WFDB_tools wrappers, install the WFDB Software Package, and verify that it is working properly on your system. Download the WFDB_tools package and unpack it using a command such as
tar xfvz WFDB_tools.tar.gz
This creates a directory named WFDB_tools, which contains the wrapper
source files (src/*.c), help files (help/*.m), precompiled binary
files (linux/*.mexglx, for x86 GNU/Linux, and windows/*.dll, for
MS-Windows), documentation (in doc/), and tutorial examples (in examples/).
Follow the instructions given in the 00README file (in the top-level WFDB_tools directory) to install the WFDB_tools on your system.
All functions have explanatory m-files available through MATLAB's help function. In the case of toolbox installation (described below) a list of all functions is found using help WFDB_tools.
