Installing, Windows binaries

• Unzip wherever you like. (Though keep in mind that eelbox.exe and the DLLs need to stay put!)
• Double klick on any *.eel script and point Windows at eelbox.exe in the eelbox subdirectory
• You should now be able to run EEL scripts by double clicking on them
• Keep in mind that any text output (stdout/stderr) goes to stdout.txt and stderr.txt!

Testing, Windows

• In the 'test' subdir:
  • To test EEL itself:
    • Double click on the file test.eel
    • Output is found in stdout.txt
  • VM benchmarks:
    • Double click on the file bench.eel
    • Output is found in stdout.txt
• In the 'eelbox' subdir:
  • Double click on the file test.eel.
    (Some of the tests need to be stopped by closing the window, or hitting the escape key.)
  • Double click on the file chat.eel.
    (Tip: Fire up two instances!)

• Unpack to wherever you keep sources
• In the top dir:

  • 'make install'
• In the 'eelbox' subdir:
  • './configure'
