How to install Wavescript on a computer

For those, who want try to use Wavescript, this page will help you to install it on a computer.

First of all, you will need to install some softwares :


- Ikarus 0.0.3+ (not the last official release): http://www.cs.indiana.edu/~aghuloum/ikarus/

        For this one, you need to install : build-essential (gcc, ...), GMP : http://gmplib.org/#DOWNLOAD, bzrtools, Autoconf et Automake.

        Download the last version using : bzr checkout --lightweight http://www.cs.indiana.edu/~aghuloum/ikarus.dev

        Then you have to install it indicating if necessary the location of GMP library and include :
                        - ./configure CFLAGS=-I/usr/local/include LDFLAGS=-L/usr/local/lib
                        - make
                        - make install (root privilege may be required)
     
 
If the installation works, you will have this result taping "ikarus" in a terminal :
                            Ikarus Scheme version 0.0.3+ (revision 1533, build 2008-07-07)
                            Copyright (c) 2006-2008 Abdulaziz Ghuloum
                             >
 Sometimes, the link to use "ikarus" isn't done, so you have to do it using : export

- PLT Scheme (>3.7) : http://download.plt-scheme.org/drscheme/plt-4-0-2-bin-i386-linux-ubuntu-sh.html

        Install using : sh plt*
       
    
- Svn : install subversion


We can now begin the installation of wavescript :

svn co -r 3260 https://svn.csail.mit.edu/wavescript/branches/wavescope ~/wavescript

cd ~/wavescript

source install_environment_vars

cd src

make


After all of this, Wavescript is installed. You can use it easily with the command : ws nameofyourfile.ws
