Oxford Oberon-2 compiler for LINUX/i386
Copyright (C) 1995-2005 J. M. Spivey


INSTALLING THE BINARY DISTRIBUTION

To install OBC on a linux system, first obtain and unpack the binary
tarball, which will have a name like obc-linux-2.4.0.tgz.  Then type
the following shell commands:

	$ cd obc-linux-2.4.0
	$ ./configure
	$ make
	$ sudo make install

This will install the compiler and runtime system under /usr/local.

The program Fac.m included in the distribution makes it easy to
perform a simple sanity test: just type the commands

	$ obc -o fac Fac.m
	$ ./fac 10

and check for the output

	The factorial of 10 is 3628800

The installation is now complete.

This software includes the Objective Caml run-time system, which is
copyright 1991-2005, INRIA.  Objective Caml may be obtained from
http://caml.inria.fr
