This distribution of Poly/ML 5.2 has been compiled from the original sources as follows: tar xvzf polyml.5.2.tar.gz cd polyml.5.2 chmod +x install-sh ./configure --prefix=/tmp/polyml --without-x make make install Now /tmp/polyml/bin/* and /tmp/polyml/lib/* are moved to the platform-specific target directory (e.g. polyml-5.2/x86-linux). Note that Isabelle/lib/scripts/polyml-platform identifies your platform. Makarius 03-Jun-2008 $Id: README,v 1.2 2008/06/03 14:45:59 wenzelm Exp $
