[Wien] Xcrygen compilation

[Laurence Marks]

While I can probably fight my way around installing easyblocks, it would be
useful for the general user if a bit more information was provided (by you
or your local HPC team). For instance, I suspect it is something like:

* Download the easyblocks module from
http://hpcugent.github.com/easybuild (what
else is needed ?)
* cd to the directory (unzip ?) and do "python setup.py install'' (is root
access needed ?)
* Download the script xcrysden (to xcrysden directory ?)
* do "python xcrysden.py"

N.B., I am probably missing some steps such as setting CC and other
environmental variables.including destination.
