Linux on x86:

There are two distributions for Linux, the first one should work with most machines, you need only try the cut-down fail-safe version if you are having problems.

glitch-1.0-i686.tar.bz2, ~ 2.8 MB

glitch-1.0-i686-failsafe.tar.bz2, ~ 2.7 MB

To unpack this tar-ball once it has been downloaded to a known location, open a terminal session, change into the file's directory and then type:

tar -jxvf glitch-1.0-i686.tar.bz2

or, for the fail-safe version:

tar -jxvf glitch-1.0-i686-failsafe.tar.bz2

You may now go into Glitch's directory and execute it:

cd glitch
./glitch

• Perl 5

Developer Documentation

Developer documentation, as generated from the source code by Doxygen.

Note: If you have Doxygen installed, you need only download the source code. Please see instructions in the BUILD file, located inside source code tar-ball.

glitch-1.0-developer-doc.tar.bz2, ~ 375 KB

To unpack this tar-ball once it has been downloaded to a known location, load up a terminal session, change into the file's directory and then type:

tar -jxvf glitch-1.0-developer-doc.tar.bz2

This will extract the documentation contents and place it in a directory called "glitch/developer-doc", located in the directory that you extracted the documentation from.
