<section name="Supported Platforms">
<ul>
<li> Colt should happily run on any Unix and any Windows with java-1.2.x or higher.
Currently, we know it runs at least on Linux, Solaris, MacOSX and Windows 2000 or higher.
</li>
</ul>

<section name="Download and Decompress Files">
<ul>
<li> Download <code>colt-{version}.(tar.gz, zip)</code> from <a href="http://dsd.lbl.gov/~hoschek/colt-download">here</a>.
Releases can be installed via a tar.gz file (Unix) or zip file (Windows).
</li>
<blockquote>
<warning name="Warning">
<ul>
<li> Because of a bug in Solaris tar, Solaris users should use <a
href="http://www.mysql.com/downloads/os-solaris.html">gnu
tar</a> to unpack archives. </li>
<li> Due too an obscure bug, Winzip and possibly other Windows
decompression tools may miss empty directories. Consequently, use
the .zip download file on Windows, and DO NOT decompress tar[.gz]
files on Windows. </li>
</ul>
</warning>
</blockquote>
<li>Decompress the file into any convenient directory (the software is relocatable)</li>
<blockquote> In the examples below we assume as installation directory
<pre class="source">
/opt/colt (Unix)
c:\colt (Windows)
</pre>
If you choose to install into an alternative location (e.g. <code>/usr/local,
$HOME, d:\apps</code>) then substitute the paths used in examples on this
website accordingly.
<pre class="source">
cd /opt
tar -zxvf colt-{version}.tar.gz (Unix)
Winzip colt-{version}.zip (Windows)
</pre>
This will create the directory tree <code>/opt/colt/</code> (Unix) or
<code>c:\colt</code> (Windows).
</blockquote>
<li>Add colt.jar and concurrent.jar to your CLASSPATH</li>
<blockquote>
<pre class="source">
export CLASSPATH=/opt/colt/lib/colt.jar:/opt/colt/lib/concurrent.jar:$CLASSPATH (on Unix bash style)
set CLASSPATH=c:\colt\lib\colt.jar;c:\colt\lib\concurrent.jar;%CLASSPATH% (on Windows)
</pre>
</blockquote>
</ul>
</section>
<!-- ##################################################################################### -->
<section name="Deinstallation">
<ul>
<li>If you ever want to uninstall the software, type</li>
<blockquote>
<pre class="source">
rm -fr /opt/colt (Unix)
rmdir c:\colt /s/q (Windows)
</pre>
</blockquote>
