<H3>NOTE: From time to time we may provide so-called <i>incremental
releases</i> of ACL2.  Please follow the <a
href="http://www.cs.utexas.edu/users/moore/acl2/v4-3/new.html">recent changes
to this page</a> link on the <a
href="http://www.cs.utexas.edu/users/moore/acl2/">ACL2 home page</a> for more
information.</H3>

<H1>Easy Install for Linux/Unix/MacOS</H1>

<b>NOTE:</b> A quicker and even easier install may be possible, by
instead obtaining a <a
href="obtaining-and-installing.html#Shortcuts">pre-built binary
distribution</a> if one is available for your platform.  Otherwise:

<ol>

<li>Fetch <A HREF="http://www.cs.utexas.edu/users/moore/acl2/v4-3/distrib/acl2.tar.gz">
acl2.tar.gz</A> into a new directory, say <code>acl2/v4-3/</code>.</li>

<li>Execute the following to create directory <code>acl2-sources/</code>:
<pre>
tar xfz acl2.tar.gz
</pre></li>

<li><a href="requirements.html">Obtain a Common Lisp implementation</a> if you don't
already have one.</li>

<li>Build by connecting to your <code>acl2-sources/</code> directory
and typing the following, which may take a few minutes to complete.
<font color="red">Note:</font> You will need Gnu make.  We have seen
problems with Version 3.81 of that utility, so if you encounter
errors, please consider our <a
href="installing-make.html">instructions for downloading and
installing GNU make version 3.80</a>.  (That said, in builds with
Allegro Common Lisp we have seen problems certifying books with GNU
make version 3.80 that seemed to be solved with version 3.81.)
<pre>
make LISP=&lt;path_to_your_lisp_executable&gt;
</pre></li>

<li>Certify books (this may take a few hours; you can speed this up
with the option <code>-j N</code> if you have an N-core machine, N&gt;1):
<pre>
make regression
</pre>

</ol>

You now have an ACL2 executable called <code>saved_acl2</code> (from step 4)
and access to certified distributed books (from step 5).  Enjoy!

<p>

<i>Note</i>: There are many other books available from ACL2 workshops,
available
<a href="http://www.cs.utexas.edu/users/moore/acl2/v4-3/distrib/acl2-sources/books/workshops.tar.gz">here</a>.

NEED.</font></b> Otherwise, read on....
