<H1>Installation</H1>
|
|
<P>
|
|
The binaries now work out of the box for each platform and support
|
|
completions (file names and parsing), because readline has been
|
|
changed to haskeline.
|
|
</P>
|
|
<P>
|
|
To compile from source, GHC 6.12 is now required. But GHC is not needed
|
|
if the binary executables are used.
|
|
</P>
|
|
<P>
|
|
Binaries (<CODE>.gfo</CODE> and <CODE>.pgf</CODE> files) compiled with GF 3.1 are incompatible
|
|
with 3.1.6 and must either be removed; alternatively, the <CODE>-src</CODE> flag can be
|
|
used when compiling.
|
|
</P>

Notice the new place to send bug reports (see GF's welcome message)!

Javascript generation is not updated to the new PGF format.

<A HREF="old-index.html">GF 3.1</A> should still be used for building Javascript applications.
