| 1 : | mblume | 1362 | Installation instructions for SML/NJ under MacOS X |
| 2 : | -------------------------------------------------- | ||
| 3 : | |||
| 4 : | To install SML/NJ under MacOS X on a machine that has the developer | ||
| 5 : | tools installed (i.e., which has a working C compiler), refer to | ||
| 6 : | our generic instructions in file INSTALL. | ||
| 7 : | |||
| 8 : | For people without developer tools on their MacOS X box we prepared | ||
| 9 : | a disk image that contains a pre-compiled runtime system. To install, | ||
| 10 : | download the image, mount it, and copy its contents (a directory named | ||
| 11 : | smlnj-xxx.xxx) to some location of your choice. (The name smlnj-xxx.xxx | ||
| 12 : | is not important -- you can change it or simply copy the contents of | ||
| 13 : | this directory into some other directory.) | ||
| 14 : | |||
| 15 : | At this point you should have some directory, e.g., /Users/joe/smlnj, | ||
| 16 : | that contains two subdirectories named "config" and "bin". Open a | ||
| 17 : | terminal (or xterm if you have X11), cd to /Users/joe/smlnj | ||
| 18 : | and follow the instructions in file INSTALL beginning *after* the | ||
| 19 : | point where it asks you to gunzip and untar config.tgz. | ||
| 20 : | |||
| 21 : | For example, if you are in a hurry and have good network connectivity, | ||
| 22 : | mblume | 1385 | simply edit config/targets and then run config/install.sh. |
| 23 : | mblume | 1362 | |
| 24 : | Once the installer finishes, you only need to keep the "bin" and "lib" | ||
| 25 : | subdirectories. You can move them wherever you like (together!) as | ||
| 26 : | long as you set the variable SMLNJ_HOME to the name of the directory | ||
| 27 : | that holds them. |
