These instructions are for installing versions of FLORA outside of the XSB distribution tree. If you installed a full version of XSB and intend to use FLORA-2 from there, you don't need to do anything -- just skip the instructions below. If you have downloaded an interim release of FLORA-2 from http://flora.sourceforge.net or a development version from the CVS repository there then you can configure FLORA-2 as follows. 1. Untar/download FLORA-2 into a directory *outside* of the XSB distribution tree, say FLORA: cd FLORA tar xzf flora2.tar.gz (or use WinZip, under Windows) This will create a subdirectory, flora2; it is the top directory of your new installation of FLORA-2. 2. Change to the top directory of the new FLORA-2 installation: cd flora2 Type makeflora clean makeflora path-to-call-xsb The path to the XSB executable is typically something like .../XSB/bin/xsb or D:\XSB\bin\xsb.bat If you have XSB executable or its invocation script somewhere on your PATH, then you can configure FLORA-2 by simply typing makeflora 3. After the installation, the shell script `runflora' (runflora.bat under Windows) will be created. Use it to run this version of FLORA-2.
