section::To begin
Navigate to the folder (the directory) in which SuperCollider resides and double-click on it (the red and white balloon icon). An untitled document with text such as
code::
init_OSC
compiling class library..
NumPrimitives = 548
compiling dir: '/Applications/SuperCollider3/SCClassLibrary'
pass 1 done
Method Table Size 3091264 bytes
Number of Method Selectors 2880
Number of Classes 1744
Number of Symbols 6926
Byte Code Size 129989
compiled 299 files in 1.61 seconds
compile done
prGetHostByName hostname 127.0.0.1 addr 2130706433

appears in the top left of the screen. The document functions as a "Post Window," so-called because SuperCollider uses it to "post" notifications.
section::Two more windows
On the bottom of the screen are two more windows. One is called "localhost server" and the other is "internal server." Click on the "boot" button on the localhost server. The words "localhost" in the black box of the button turn red and the word "Boot" on the button changes to "Quit." More text, such as
code::
booting 57110
SC_AudioDriver: numSamples=512, sampleRate=44100.000000
start UseSeparateIO?: 0
PublishPortToRendezvous 0 57110
SuperCollider 3 server ready..
notification is on
::
will print to the post window. The localhost server is now ready to be used. Activate the internal server, if you wish, in the same way.
section::Workspace windows
Open existing SC documents with File->Open... or cmd-o. Use File->New or cmd-n to create new documents.
SuperCollider documents generally have .scd appended to their file names; however, SuperCollider can read and write documents in Rich Text Format (.rtf) and several other formats, as well.
