Here is the procedure to install FigTree:

% sudo mv FigTree_v1.3.1 /opt/bio/sources
</code>

  * This folder should belong to ''root'' and its permissions should be set to ''755''.

<code bash>
% sudo chown -R root:root /opt/bio/sources/FigTree_v1.3.1

<code bash>
% sudo chmod 755 /opt/bio/sources/FigTree_v1.3.1/bin/figtree
% sudo ln -s /opt/bio/sources/FigTree_v1.3.1/bin/figtree /usr/local/bin/figtree
