== Download Slicer for Users ==
 
 
 
Download and unpack the appropriate archive for your platform from [http://slicerl.bwh.harvard.edu/snapshots/slicer2.5MGH Slicer2.5MGH]<nowiki>: this link gives you a precompiled ready-to-use Slicer for </nowiki>'''Windows XP''' and '''Mac OS X 10.4''' platforms.
 
 
 
* Windows XP: [http://slicerl.bwh.harvard.edu/snapshots/slicer2.5MGH/slicer2.5-MGH-win32-2005-10-04.zip slicer2.5-MGH-win32-2005-10-04.zip]
 
* Mac OS X 10.4: [http://slicerl.bwh.harvard.edu/snapshots/slicer2.5MGH/slicer2.5-MGH-darwin-ppc-2005-10-04.tar.gz slicer2.5-darwin-ppc-2005-10-04.tar.gz]
 
* Linux: [http://slicerl.bwh.harvard.edu/snapshots/slicer2.5MGH/slicer2.5-MGH-linux-x86-2005-10-04.tar.gz slicer2.5-linux-x86-2005-10-04.tar.gz]
 
* Solaris: [http://slicerl.bwh.harvard.edu/snapshots/slicer2.5MGH/slicer2.5-MGH-solaris-sparc-2005-10-04.tar.gz slicer2.5-solaris-sparc-2005-10-04.tar.gz]
 
 
 
If you are running Mac OS X 10.3, please upgrade your platform.
 
 
 
== 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: mbolic link in /usr/local/bin pointing to the executable for your platform in the distribution directory
 
 
 
* Windows: There is no windows installer, so you may put slicer in any convenient location and put a shortcut to the slicer2-win32.exe on your desktop.
 
* Mac OS: No installation suggestions currently
 
 
 
== Notes for Mac OS X Users ==
 
 
 
'''Note'''<nowiki>: See the top of </nowiki>[[Slicer:Patches_for_the_Mac|this page]] for information on configuring your X server.
 
 
 
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/slicer2.5/latest/slicer2/slicer2-darwin-ppc
 
 
 
Other notes on building and running on the Mac are at [[Slicer:Slicer2.5_Patches_for_the_Mac|Slicer:Slicer2.5_Patches_for_the_Mac]]
 
 
 
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
 
 
 
== Reporting Bugs ==
 
 
 
Please go to http://www.na-mic.org/Bug/ and report bugs for Slicer version 2.5.x. Information on [[Slicer:Bugs|How to enter bugs]] into the Slicer bug tracker.
 
 
 
== Where to go for Help ==
