    88       =================================================
    9 To install Singular on a Macintosh (PPC or 68k), you need the file
    10       Singular-<x-y-z>-<target>-MPW.sea.hqx
    11 which you can obtain by public ftp from
    12       ftp://www.mathematik.uni-kl.de/pub/Math/Singular/
    13 Furthermore, you need MacOS version >= 7.5 with an installed MPW
    14 shell (see below for instructions on how to get MPW). 
     9To install Singular on a Macintosh (PPC or 68k), you need the following two
     10archives:
     11
     12Singular-<x-y-z>-share.sea.hqx
     13   -- contains architecture independent data like documentation and libraries
     14Singular-<x-y-z>-<target>-MPW.sea.hqx
     15   -- contains architecture dependent executables, like the Singular program
     16
     17You can obtain these files from
     18        ftp://www.mathematik.uni-kl.de/pub/Math/Singular/
     19
     20Furthermore, you need MacOS version >= 7.5 with an installed MPW shell
     21E.T.O. >= 21 (see below for instructions on how to get MPW).

    1733TO INSTALL SINGULAR
    1834===================
    19 0.) Make sure that you have MPW E.T.O. >= 21 installed on your
    20     system. See below for instructions on how to install MPW.
     351.) Expand the two downloaded files using a standard Expander (like Compact
     36    Pro or StuffIt) to obtain the corresponding self-extracting `.sea'
     37    files.
    2138
    22 1.) Download the file Singular-<x-y-z>-<target>-MPW.sea.hqx.
     392.) Click on the two self-extracting `.sea' files. This
     40    will create a new (or, update an existing) folder named "Singular"
     41    which contains the Singular program in the subfolder "<x-y-z>".
     42    Multiple versions of Singular can peaceably coexist under the same
     43    root folder.
    2344
    24 2.) Expand the downloaded file using a standard Expander (like Compact
    25     Pro or StuffIt) to obtain the corresponding self-extracting
    26     Singular-<x-y-z>-<target>-MPW.sea file.
    27 
    28 3.) Click on the self-extracting Singular-<x-y-z>-<target>-MPW.sea file. This
    29     will create a new folder named "Singular" which contains the
    30     Singular program in the subfolder "<x-y-z>".
    31 
    32 4.) Clicking on the Singular icon in the desktop, starts up the MPW shell
     453.) Clicking on the Singular icon in the desktop, starts up the MPW shell
    3346    (the working direktory of the MPW shell is then the directory of the
    3447    executable). To start Singular, you need to type in 'Singular' in
    … …  
    3750    direktory to the directory of the Singular program.
    3851
    39 The directory where you extract the Singular archive is expected
    40 to be the common prefix for installed software, and Singular-specific
    41 subdirectories of it will be created.  The directories are arranged
    42 in such a way that multiple versions of Singular can peaceably coexist
    43 under the same root. 
    44 
    4552After unpacking, you will have a directory structure like:
    46 
    47   ./Singular/<x-y-z>/Singular            Singular executable
    48   ./Singular/<x-y-z>/libparse            parser for Singular libraries
    49   ./Singular/LIB/<x-y-z>/                Singular libraries
    50   ./Singular/LIB/gftables/               Singular gftables
    51   ./Singular/doc/<x-y-z>/                documentation (ps, dvi, info)
    52   ./Singular/html/<x-y-z>/               documentation (html)
    53   ./Singular/README                      information of the distribution
    54   ./Singular/COPYING                     licence information
    55   ./Singular/README.general              general Singular info
    56   ./Singular/INSTALL                     this file
    57 
    58 
     53  ./Singular/<x-y-z>/Singular  Singular executable
     54  ./Singular/<x-y-z>/libparse  parser for Singular libraries
     55  ./Singular/LIB/<x-y-z>/      Singular libraries
     56  ./Singular/LIB/gftables/     Singular gftables
     57  ./Singular/doc/<x-y-z>/      documentation (ps, dvi, info)
     58  ./Singular/html/<x-y-z>/     documentation (html)
     59  ./Singular/README            general information on Singular
     60  ./Singular/COPYING           licence information
     61  ./Singular/INSTALL           this file
    5962For the executable to work, the directory layout must look like this.
    6063In particular, you should not move or copy the Singular executables to
    6164another place.

    6266
    6367TO INSTALL MPW
    … …  
    6771
    6872You only need the file containing the MPW shell (i.e., 'MPW_Shell.sit.hqx').
     73
    6974However, if you wish to start Singular  from within the MPW shell you
    7075furthermore need the file  'Tools/GetFileName.sit.hqx'.
    … …
