-.. note:: Windows Spec Syntax Caveats
-   Windows has a few idiosyncrasies when it comes to the Spack spec syntax and the use of certain shells
-   Spack's spec dependency syntax uses the carat (``^``) character, however this is an escape string in CMD
-   so it must be escaped with an additional carat (i.e. ``^^``).
-   CMD also will attempt to interpret strings with ``=`` characters in them. Any spec including this symbol
-   must double quote the string.

-   Note: All of these issues are unique to CMD, they can be avoided by using Powershell.

-
+The view descriptor contains the root of the view, and
-   spack:

-``.spack-env/view`` directory of the environment.
-
-Another short way to configure a view is to specify just where to put it:
-

-
-   spack:
-     # ...
-     view: /path/to/view

-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
-One or more **view descriptors** can be defined under ``view``, keyed by a name.

-.. code-block:: yaml
-

-     # ...
-     view:

-         root: /path/to/view  # view descriptor attribute
-
-The ``default`` view descriptor name is special: when you ``spack env activate`` your

-View descriptors must contain the root of the view, and optionally projections,

+-------------
+Spack on Cray
+-------------
+
+Spack differs slightly when used on a Cray system. The architecture spec
+can differentiate between the front-end and back-end processor and operating system.
+For example, on Edison at NERSC, the back-end target processor
+is "Ivy Bridge", so you can specify to use the back-end this way:
+
+.. code-block:: console
+
+   $ spack install zlib target=ivybridge
+
+You can also use the operating system to build against the back-end:
+
+.. code-block:: console
+
+   $ spack install zlib os=CNL10
+
+Notice that the name includes both the operating system name and the major
+version number concatenated together.
+
+Alternatively, if you want to build something for the front-end,
+you can specify the front-end target processor. The processor for a login node
+on Edison is "Sandy bridge" so we specify on the command line like so:
+
+.. code-block:: console
+
+   $ spack install zlib target=sandybridge
+
+And the front-end operating system is:
+
+.. code-block:: console
+
+   $ spack install zlib os=SuSE11
+
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+Cray compiler detection
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+Spack can detect compilers using two methods. For the front-end, we treat
+everything the same. The difference lies in back-end compiler detection.
+Back-end compiler detection is made via the Tcl module avail command.
+Once it detects the compiler it writes the appropriate PrgEnv and compiler
+module name to compilers.yaml and sets the paths to each compiler with Cray\'s
+compiler wrapper names (i.e. cc, CC, ftn). During build time, Spack will load
+the correct PrgEnv and compiler module and will call appropriate wrapper.
+
+The compilers.yaml config file will also differ. There is a
+modules section that is filled with the compiler's Programming Environment
+and module name. On other systems, this field is empty []:
+
+.. code-block:: yaml
+
+   - compiler:
+       modules:
+         - PrgEnv-intel
+         - intel/15.0.109
+
+As mentioned earlier, the compiler paths will look different on a Cray system.
+Since most compilers are invoked using cc, CC and ftn, the paths for each
+compiler are replaced with their respective Cray compiler wrapper names:
+
+.. code-block:: yaml
+
+     paths:
+       cc: cc
+       cxx: CC
+       f77: ftn
+       fc: ftn
+
+As opposed to an explicit path to the compiler executable. This allows Spack
+to call the Cray compiler wrappers during build time.
+
+For more on compiler configuration, check out :ref:`compiler-config`.
+
+Spack sets the default Cray link type to dynamic, to better match other
+other platforms. Individual packages can enable static linking (which is the
+default outside of Spack on cray systems) using the ``-static`` flag.
+
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+Setting defaults and using Cray modules
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+If you want to use default compilers for each PrgEnv and also be able
+to load cray external modules, you will need to set up a ``packages.yaml``.
+
+Here's an example of an external configuration for cray modules:
+
+.. code-block:: yaml
+
+   packages:
+     mpich:
+       externals:
+       - spec: "mpich@7.3.1%gcc@5.2.0 arch=cray_xc-haswell-CNL10"
+         modules:
+         - cray-mpich
+       - spec: "mpich@7.3.1%intel@16.0.0.109 arch=cray_xc-haswell-CNL10"
+         modules:
+         - cray-mpich
+     all:
+       providers:
+         mpi: [mpich]
+
+This tells Spack that for whatever package that depends on mpi, load the
+cray-mpich module into the environment. You can then be able to use whatever
+environment variables, libraries, etc, that are brought into the environment
+via module load.
+
+.. note::
+
+    For Cray-provided packages, it is best to use ``modules:`` instead of ``prefix:``
+    in ``packages.yaml``, because the Cray Programming Environment heavily relies on
+    modules (e.g., loading the ``cray-mpich`` module adds MPI libraries to the
+    compiler wrapper link line).
+
+You can set the default compiler that Spack can use for each compiler type.
+If you want to use the Cray defaults, then set them under ``all:`` in packages.yaml.
+In the compiler field, set the compiler specs in your order of preference.
+Whenever you build with that compiler type, Spack will concretize to that version.
+
+Here is an example of a full packages.yaml used at NERSC
+
+.. code-block:: yaml
+
+   packages:
+     mpich:
+       externals:
+       - spec: "mpich@7.3.1%gcc@5.2.0 arch=cray_xc-CNL10-ivybridge"
+         modules:
+         - cray-mpich
+       - spec: "mpich@7.3.1%intel@16.0.0.109 arch=cray_xc-SuSE11-ivybridge"
+         modules:
+         - cray-mpich
+       buildable: False
+     netcdf:
+       externals:
+       - spec: "netcdf@4.3.3.1%gcc@5.2.0 arch=cray_xc-CNL10-ivybridge"
+         modules:
+         - cray-netcdf
+       - spec: "netcdf@4.3.3.1%intel@16.0.0.109 arch=cray_xc-CNL10-ivybridge"
+         modules:
+         - cray-netcdf
+       buildable: False
+     hdf5:
+       externals:
+       - spec: "hdf5@1.8.14%gcc@5.2.0 arch=cray_xc-CNL10-ivybridge"
+         modules:
+         - cray-hdf5
+       - spec: "hdf5@1.8.14%intel@16.0.0.109 arch=cray_xc-CNL10-ivybridge"
+         modules:
+         - cray-hdf5
+       buildable: False
+     all:
+       compiler: [gcc@5.2.0, intel@16.0.0.109]
+       providers:
+         mpi: [mpich]
+
+Here we tell spack that whenever we want to build with gcc use version 5.2.0 or
+if we want to build with intel compilers, use version 16.0.0.109. We add a spec
+for each compiler type for each cray modules. This ensures that for each
+compiler on our system we can use that external module.
