Hello!

Thank you for choosing SmartEiffel.

I'm here to help you install your software. Many default options have been set
for you; the simplest way to install SmartEiffel is to keep pressing the
<Enter> key as long as I ask anything.

Of course you can change the options I set; it's just a matter of chosing items
in the menus, and you'll see you can greatly customize your SmartEiffel
installation. A golden rule is, just pressing <Enter> always works, and
inexorably leads towards the actual SmartEiffel installation. When no default is
provided (between brackets), the <Enter> key will just leave everything
unchanged and get you back to the previous menu.

As training, you'll be asked to press the <Enter> key to gain access to the
main menu ;-)

If you have problems, please contact the SmartEiffel team:
  - either by mail:  SmartEiffel@loria.fr
  - either by using the bugs database: http://SmartZilla.loria.fr


Press the <Enter> key: 
         }")
         read_line

         io.put_string(once "{

Don't forget that rule: the <Enter> key ensures that SmartEiffel will eventually
get installed.

This is the SmartEiffel installer.

This installer is here to help you. The options of the main menu are the six
steps that can be performed to install SmartEiffel. Once an action was perform-
ed, the menu proposes the next one.

You may have seen that, even starting the program, the menu already proposes
some option other than the first! Don't worry! It just means that the first
steps were automatically performed by the installer. You may always choose to
change them, by not choosing the default menu action.

The six steps are:

- First, tell the installer which system SmartEiffel is to be installed upon;
  also choose the directories SmartEiffel will be installed in, and the path
  to the configuration file to be created. At last, you may add default
  "loadpath" entries, meaning the files which describe where to find classes,
  by default (this facility is here to help you insert third-party libraries).

  Note that this step may be automatically performed. In that case, the OS was
  automatically performed, the configuration file is given a default location,
  the directories too, and the default loadpath files are those provided by
  SmartEiffel.


- Second, you may want to tell SmartEiffel which "C modes" are to be recognized.
  SmartEiffel uses a C compiler as back-end; it means that you need a C compiler
  installed on your machine.

  The C modes are ways to tailor how the C compiler must behave; each C modes is
  a C compiler, its path, and its options, and extra options for SmartEiffel to
  use.

  Let me explain in more details:

  SmartEiffel disposes of many options to tailor how instrumented your execut-
  able will be; wich assertions to check, should SmartEiffel add a debugger,
  should SmartEiffel generate the "debug" statements, and so on.

  Each "assertion level": boost, require_check, and so on, is associated with
  a default C mode, named after the level. A typical configuration would associ-
  ate the "boost" level with a highly optimizing C compiler (such as "gcc -O3");
  it would, on the other hand, tell SmartEiffel to no strip the executable in
  debug mode (and why not adding the SmartEiffel Debugger) while asking the C
  compiler to generate the symbol tables.


- Third, you can verify what you entered in the two previous sections. If all is
  ok, then you are ready to install SmartEiffel.


- Fourth, the configuration file is to be written at its chosen location.


- Fifth, the SmartEiffel tools are installed! They use the configuration file to
  generate themselves; just before compiling the tools, you will be asked which
  C mode should be used for that very task; the default mode is "boost".


- Sixth, last but not least: you can now leave the installer; you are now ready
  to enjoy SmartEiffel!


        Happy SmartEiffelling :o)
