| − | == Installation ==
| |
| − | | |
| − | You can run the toplevel slicer executable from any directory, but if you want to install it as a system-wide package we suggest the following methods:
| |
| − | | |
| − | * Unix/Linux:
| |
| − | ** place the slicer2 distribution directory in /usr/local/lib/slicer2.6
| |
| − | ** place a symbolic link in /usr/local/bin pointing to the executable for your platform in the distribution directory
| |
| − | ** If you are running Ubuntu, see [[Slicer:Slicer2.6Ubuntu|Slicer2.6 on Ubuntu]] for more information.
| |
| − | * Windows:
| |
| − | ** there is no windows installer, so you may put slicer in any convenient location. You may wish to put a shortcut to the slicer2-win32.exe on your desktop.
| |
| − | * Mac OS:
| |
| − | ** No installation suggestions currently

| − | == Notes for Mac OS X Users ==
| |
| − | | |
| − | To run Slicer on the Mac, you need to have the X server and from an xterm run the slicer2-darwin-ppc executable at the top level of the unpacked archive.
| |
| − | | |
| − | If you want to customize the X11 Application menu to launch slicer, you can use a syntax like the following:
| |
| − | | |
| − | xterm -e /Users/pieper/slicer2.6/latest/slicer2/slicer2-darwin-ppc
| |
| − | | |
| − | Note that Slicer relies on the X11 system and must be launched from within an xterm. More information about X11 on the mac is here: http://developer.apple.com/darwin/runningx11.html X11 isn't installed by default on current Mac OS releases, so be sure to select it as an optional package from your installation DVD.
| |
| − | | |
| − | On the mac, the first click that raises a window to the front won't be passed on to that application. This can be confusing in slicer since the buttons will highlight as you pass over them even if the window is not in the front. To work around this, execute the following in an xterm:
| |
| − | | |
| − | defaults write com.apple.x11 wm_click_through -bool true
