Most CD-HIT programs were written in C++. Installing CD-HIT package is very simple:

download current CD-HIT at https://github.com/weizhongli/cdhit/releases, for example cd-hit-v4.6.6-2016-0711.tar.gz
unpack the file with " tar xvf cd-hit-v4.6.6-2016-0711.tar.gz --gunzip"
change dir by "cd cd-hit-v4.6.6-2016-0711"
compile the programs by "make" with multi-threading (default), or by "make openmp=no" without multi-threading (on old systems without OpenMP)
cd cd-hit-auxtools
compile cd-hit-auxtools by "make"
