-
-Features: GF = GF shell and grammar compiler and the Resource Grammar Library,
-S = ``gf -server`` mode, C = C run-time system, P = Python binding to the C run-time system
-
-%More binary packages might be added later.
-
-===Notes===
-
-The Windows package is installed by just unpacking it anywhere.
-%It finds the libraries relative to the ``.exe`` file.
-You will probably need to set the ``PATH`` and ``GF_LIB_PATH`` environment
-variables, see Inari's notes on
-[Installing GF on Windows http://www.grammaticalframework.org/~inari/gf-windows.html#toc3].
-
-%The new experimental MINGW package is for use in the
-%[MINGW http://www.mingw.org] environment in Windows. Unpack it in the MSYS shell
-%(which is started with ``C:\MinGW\msys\1.0\msys.bat``).
-%It should work out of the box without any additional settings.
-
-The ``.deb`` packages work on Ubuntu 12.04, 14.04 and 15.04.
-
-The packages for Mac OS work on 10.9 (Mavericks) and on 10.10 (Yosemite).
-
-The Mac OS and Linux ``.tar.gz`` packages are designed to be installed in
-``/usr/local``.
-You can install them in other locations, but then you need to set the
-``GF_LIB_PATH`` environment variable:
-
-```
- export GF_LIB_PATH=/usr/local/share/gf-3.7/lib
-```
-
-where ``/usr/local`` should be replaced with the path to the location where you
-unpacked the package.
-
-
-==Installing the latest release from source==
-
-[GF is on Hackage http://hackage.haskell.org/package/gf], so under normal
-circumstances the prodedure is fairly simple:
-
-+ Install the [Haskell Platform http://hackage.haskell.org/platform]
- version 2013.2.0.0 or 2012.4.0.0 (see notes 2&3 below)
-+ ``cabal update``
-+ On Linux: install some C libraries from your Linux distribution
- (see note 1 below)
-+ ``cabal install gf``
-
-
-You can also download the full source package from here:
-[``gf-3.7.tar.gz`` gf-3.7.tar.gz].
-
-=== Notes ===
-
-The above steps installs GF for a single user.
-% and does not require root privileges.
-The executables are put in ``$HOME/.cabal/bin``
-(or, with recent versions of the Haskell platform on Mac OS X,
-in ``$HOME/Library/Haskell/bin``), so it is a good
-idea to put a line in your ``.bash_profile`` or ``.profile``
-to add that directory to you path:
-
-```
- PATH=$HOME/.cabal/bin:$PATH
-```
-or
-```
- PATH=$HOME/Library/Haskell/bin:$PATH
-```
-
-**Note 1**.
-GF uses [``haskeline`` http://hackage.haskell.org/package/haskeline], which
-on Linux depends on some non-Haskell libraries that
-won't be installed automatically by cabal, and therefore need to be installed
-manually. Here is one way to do this:
-
-- On Ubuntu: ``sudo apt-get install libghc-haskeline-dev``
-- On Fedora: ``sudo yum install ghc-haskeline-devel``
-
-
-**Note 2**.
-We recommend using GHC 7.8 (which is part of the Haskell Platform 2014.2.0.0)
-or GHC 7.6 (which is part of the Haskell Platform 2013.2.0.0).
-Using GHC 7.4 (Haskell Platform 2012.4.0.0) still works too.
-%Compilation with GHC 6.12 is no longer supported, because of multiple package
-%version dependency problems.
-
-The GF source code has been updated to be compilable with GHC 7.10.1, but we
-have seen cases where GF stops with the message ``gf: <<loop>>`` when running
-with multiple threads (``-j +RTS -N -RTS``), so it's probably better to stick
-with GHC 7.8, at least until GHC 7.10.2 is out.
-
-**Note 3**.
-[The Haskell Platform for Mac OS X http://www.haskell.org/platform/mac.html]
-page states that on OS X 10.6 you need Xcode 3.2 or later, but in fact it appears you need
-Xcode 3.2.3 or later. If you have Xcode 3.2.2, you can get an error from the
-linker: ``ld: unknown option: -no_pie``.
-
-=== Known problems ===
-
-There seems to be a bug in some versions of Cabal that can cause
-
-```
- Distribution/Simple/PackageIndex.hs:124:8-13: Assertion failed
-```
-
-if the same version of GF is
-already installed. If you encounter this, you can use ``ghc-pkg unregister gf``
-to remove the installed version of GF and ``ghc-pkg list gf`` to verify that
-it is gone.
-
-==Installing from the latest developer source code==
-
-The first time:
-%, assuming you already have the Haskell Platform and darcs
-
-```
- darcs get --lazy http://www.grammaticalframework.org/ GF
- cd GF
- cabal install
-```
-
-Subsequently:
-
-```
- cd GF
- darcs pull -a
- cabal install
-```
-
-Alternatively, you can get the code from the
-[GF GitHub https://github.com/GrammaticalFramework/GF/] mirror, which is
-updated nightly.
-
-The above notes for installing from source apply also in these cases.
-For more info on working with the GF source code, see the
-[GF Developers Guide ../doc/gf-developers.html].
