Here is the procedure for compiling and installing BIGLOO on a Unix system.


Compiling BIGLOO
****************

   1. If your machine is not defined in line 18 of the 
      `distribution/bigloo.h.tail' file, compile the file `public/grows.c'.
      It determines the way the stack grows. It is DOWN or UP. Complete the 
      include file by three lines like:
      
      #if( defined( <your machine type> ) )
      #   define STACK_GROWS <UP or DOWN>
      #endif
      
   2. Type `make boot'.


Installing BIGLOO
*****************

   3. Edit the Makefile file. Write the directory where you
      want `Bigloo' to be installed in the DESTINATION variable. This 
      directory must contains four sub-directories, `man', `lib', `bin' 
      and `include'.

   4. Type `make install'.

Once the compiler is installed it is possible to remove the all directory.


Testing BIGLOO
**************

   5. Now Bigloo is ready to be used but if you want to make the
      initial test, type `cd recette; make'. The compilation will
      produces `warning' messages on the files `callcc.scm' and `macro.scm'.
      It is normal.
