The TauP Toolkit
Flexible Seismic Travel-Time and Raypath Utilities
Version 2.6
http://www.seis.sc.edu/taup/
The TauP Toolkit is a seismic travel time calculator. In addition to travel times, it can calculate derivative information such as ray paths through the earth, pierce and turning points. It handles many types of velocity models and can calculate times for virtually any seismic phase with a phase parser. It is written in Java so it should run on any Java enabled platform.
The manual for the TauP Toolkit can be found in doc/taup.pdf. A copy of the TauP paper published in SRL can be found in doc/SRL_paper/taup_srl_with_figs.pdf.
Scripts for the various tool for both unix (sh) and windows (bat) are in the bin directory.

Using homebrew:
brew tap crotwell/crotwell
brew install taup
taup --help
Using snap:
sudo snap install taup
taup --help
Note: I have only tested this on Ubuntu on amd64.
You may also get the lastest development version via
sudo snap install taup --channel=--channel=latest/edge
Download tarball here: https://www.seis.sc.edu/downloads/TauP/TauP-2.6.0.tgz or from the releases section on Github https://github.com/crotwell/TauP/releases
tar zxf
and add the bin to your PATH.
You should not need to rebuild TauP unless you are trying to help debug, but if you do, you can build it using the Gradle wrapper script.
gradlew eB
will build TauP in build/explode.
