                 Installation Instructions

==============================================================

For Mac OS and Windows users, it is strongly recommended that
you exit all programs before running the setup program. Also,
you should temporarily disable virus-detection software.

For Linux users, note that the installation instructions use
the bash shell. If you're not using bash, adjust the commands
accordingly.

For all platforms, install into a clean (new) directory.
Installing on top of previously released builds may cause
problems.

Note: These instructions do not tell you how to build RetroZilla.

Windows Installation Instructions
---------------------------------

Note: For Windows NT/2000/XP systems, you need Administrator

with Administrator privileges.


    To install RetroZilla by downloading the RetroZilla installer,
    follow these steps:

	1. Click the the mozilla-win32-installer.exe link on
	the site you're downloading RetroZilla from to download

    To install RetroZilla by downloading the .zip file and
    installing manually, follow these steps:

	1. Click the mozilla-win32-talkback.zip link or the
	mozilla-win32.zip link on the site you're down-
	loading RetroZilla from to download the .zip file to
	your machine.

	2. Navigate to where you downloaded the file and

Mac OS X Installation Instructions
----------------------------------

    To install RetroZilla by downloading the RetroZilla disk image,
    follow these steps:

	1. Click the mozilla-mac-MachO.dmg.gz link to download
	it to your machine. By default, the download file is
	downloaded to your desktop.

	2. Once you have downloaded the .dmg.gz file, drag it
	onto Stuffit Expander to decompress it. If the disk
	image doesn't mount automatically, double-click on the
	.dmg file to mount it. If that fails, and the file
	does not look like a disk image file, do a "Show Info"
	on the file, and, in the "Open with application"
	category, choose Disk Copy. In Mac OS 10.2, you can
	use "Open with" from the context menu.

	have it easily accessible at all times. You might also
	wish to select RetroZilla as your default browser in the
	Internet system preferences pane (under the Web tab).


Linux Installation Instructions
-------------------------------

Note: If you install in the default directory (which is
usually /usr/local/mozilla), or any other directory where
only the root user normally has write-access, you must
start RetroZilla first as root before other users can start
the program. Doing so generates a set of files required
for later use by other users.


    To install RetroZilla by downloading the RetroZilla installer,
    follow these steps:

	1. Create a directory named mozilla (mkdir mozilla)
	and change to that directory (cd mozilla).

	2. Click the link on the site you're downloading
	RetroZilla from to download the installer file
	(called mozilla-1686-pc-linux-gnu-installer.tar.gz)
	to your machine.

	3. Change to the mozilla directory (cd mozilla) and
	decompress the archive with the following command:

	  tar zxvf moz*.tar.gz

	The installer is now located in a subdirectory of
	RetroZilla	named mozilla-installer.

	4. Change to the mozilla-installer directory
	(cd mozilla-installer) and run the installer with the
	./mozilla-installer command.

 	5. Follow the instructions in the install wizard for
	installing RetroZilla.

	Note: If you have a slower machine, be aware that the
	installation may take some time. In this case, the
	installation progress may appear to hang indefinitely,
	even though the installation is still in process.

	6. To start RetroZilla, change to the directory where you
	installed it and run the ./mozilla command.


    To install RetroZilla by downloading the tar.gz file:

	1. Create a directory named "mozilla" (mkdir mozilla)
	and change to that directory (cd mozilla).

	2. Click the link on the site you're downloading
	RetroZilla from to download the non-installer
	(mozilla*.tar.gz) file into the mozilla directory.

	3. Change to the mozilla directory (cd mozilla) and
	decompress the file with the following command:

	  tar zxvf moz*.tar.gz

	This creates a "mozilla" directory under your mozilla
	directory.

	4. Change to the mozilla directory (cd mozilla).

	5. Run RetroZilla with the following run script:

	  ./mozilla


    To hook up RetroZilla complete with icon to the GNOME Panel,

	and then open the Add to Panel submenu and choose Launcher.
