Installing a binary tarball with Mathemagix

1.Download a tarball for your architecture

First download the binary tarball corresponding to your architecture:

Linux, 32 bits

Mathemagix-0.4-linux32.tar.gz (in progress)

Linux, 64 bits

Mathemagix-0.4-linux64.tar.gz (in progress)

MacOs X, Intel

Mathemagix-0.4-macintel.tar.gz

Windows, 32 bits

Mathemagix-0.4-win32.tar.gz (in progress)

2.Installing the tarball

Inside a shell, go to a directory of your choice, say /ppp, and decompress the binary tarball using the command

tar -zxvf Mathemagix-0.4-aaa.tar.gz

where aaa stands for your architecture. This will create a directory Mathemagix-0.4-aaa. The subdirectory bin should be put in your path. When using bash, the appropriate command is

cd /ppp/Mathemagix-0.4-aaa 
export PATH=$PWD/bin:$PATH

If you are in a Linux environment, type also

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$PWD/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH

In a Mac OS environment, use

export DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH=$PWD/lib:$DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH

You probably want to add this line to your personal boot script, such as .bash_profile.

3.Run

You may now launch the interpreter using

mmx-light

If you installed GNU TeXmacs on your system, then you may also run the interpreter inside a mathematical shell by clicking on the menu entry InsertSessionMathemagix.
