Update of /cvsroot/smlnj/pages/dist/working/110.54 In directory sc8-pr-cvs1.sourceforge.net:/tmp/cvs-serv9380 Modified Files: MACOSXINSTALL Log Message: new Mac OS X instructions Index: MACOSXINSTALL =================================================================== RCS file: /cvsroot/smlnj/pages/dist/working/110.54/MACOSXINSTALL,v retrieving revision 1.1 retrieving revision 1.2 diff -C2 -d -r1.1 -r1.2 *** MACOSXINSTALL 18 May 2005 18:49:45 -0000 1.1 --- MACOSXINSTALL 19 May 2005 03:24:34 -0000 1.2 *************** *** 2,27 **** -------------------------------------------------- ! To install SML/NJ under MacOS X on a machine that has the developer ! tools installed (i.e., which has a working C compiler), refer to ! our generic instructions in file INSTALL. ! For people without developer tools on their MacOS X box we prepared ! a disk image that contains a pre-compiled runtime system. To install, ! download the image, mount it, and copy its contents (a directory named ! smlnj-xxx.xxx) to some location of your choice. (The name smlnj-xxx.xxx ! is not important -- you can change it or simply copy the contents of ! this directory into some other directory.) ! At this point you should have some directory, e.g., /Users/joe/smlnj, ! that contains two subdirectories named "config" and "bin". Open a ! terminal (or xterm if you have X11), cd to /Users/joe/smlnj ! and follow the instructions in file INSTALL beginning *after* the ! point where it asks you to gunzip and untar config.tgz. ! For example, if you are in a hurry and have good network connectivity, ! simply edit config/targets and then run config/install.sh. ! Once the installer finishes, you only need to keep the "bin" and "lib" ! subdirectories. You can move them wherever you like (together!) as ! long as you set the variable SMLNJ_HOME to the name of the directory ! that holds them. --- 2,26 ---- -------------------------------------------------- ! We now provide a disk image containing an installer package ! for SML/NJ. The package contains a full installation ! including nearly all optional components. (We only ! exclude "mlrisc-tools" and "nowhere".) In the near ! future we plan to provide a meta-package which lets ! users select the components to be installed. ! The current installer lets the user choose an installation ! root directory. The default is /usr/local/smlnj. ! The SML/NJ-specific "bin" directory containing the ! "sml" command and its siblings is not automatically ! added to the shell's search path, though. ! When using the installer package (even in the case ! when the installation directory is not the default ! /usr/local/smlnj) it is NOT necessary to set any ! global environment variables such as SMLNJ_HOME. ! ---- ! When developer tools are present on a MacOS X machine, ! then it is also always possible to do a generic install ! (see file INSTALL). ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by Oracle Space Sweepstakes Want to be the first software developer in space?
