| |
− | | |
− | 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.
