<h1>The Isabelle System Distribution</h1>

<h2>Version information</h2>
|
|
wenzelm@3259
|
15 |
|
|
wenzelm@4987
|
16 |
This is the internal repository version of Isabelle. Starting with
|
|
wenzelm@4987
|
17 |
Isabelle98, the current line of Isabelle introduces many new features,
|
|
wenzelm@5207
|
18 |
but also some imcompatibilities with Isabelle94-XX. See the
|
|
wenzelm@4987
|
19 |
<tt>NEWS</tt> file in the distribution for more details.

<h2>System requirements</h2>
|
|
wenzelm@3259
|
23 |
|
|
wenzelm@3259
|
24 |
Isabelle requires a real Unix box with sufficient resources. Fun
|
|
wenzelm@3274
|
25 |
starts at about 32MB of memory (somewhat depending on your ML system),
|
|
wenzelm@4401
|
26 |
with several tens of MB disk space and a relatively fast CPU.
|
|
wenzelm@3259
|
27 |
|
|
wenzelm@3259
|
28 |
<p>
|
|
wenzelm@3259
|
29 |
|
|
wenzelm@3259
|
30 |
Furthermore, it needs the following software, which is not part of the
|
|
wenzelm@3259
|
31 |
distribution:
|
|
wenzelm@3259
|
32 |
<ul>
|
|
wenzelm@3259
|
33 |
<li> A full Standard ML Compiler (e.g. Poly/ML or SML of New Jersey).
|
|
wenzelm@3279
|
34 |
<li> The GNU bash shell (version 1.x or 2.x).
|
|
wenzelm@3259
|
35 |
<li> Perl 5.x - the Pathologically Eclectic Rubbish Lister.
|
|
wenzelm@3259
|
36 |
</ul>
|
|
wenzelm@3259
|

The following ML system and platform combinations are known to work
|
|
wenzelm@3259
|
41 |
quite well:
|
|
wenzelm@3259
|
42 |
<ul>
|
|
wenzelm@3279
|
43 |
<li> Poly/ML versions 2.x and 3.1 on Suns.
|
|
wenzelm@3259
|
44 |
<li> SML/NJ 0.93 on Suns and SGIs. There seem to be several
|
|
wenzelm@3259
|
45 |
problems with Linux and HP-UX.
|
|
wenzelm@4401
|
46 |
<li> SML/NJ versions 109.27 to 109.33 on Suns, Linux, etc.
|
|
wenzelm@4401
|
47 |
<li> SML/NJ 110 on Suns, Linux, etc.
|
|
wenzelm@3259
|

</ul>

needs lots of store and disk space, but it is free. The current
|
|
wenzelm@4431
|
55 |
official release is 110. We also still support the old 0.93 release
|
|
wenzelm@4481
|
56 |
and working versions 109.27 to 109.33.

<a href="http://www.ahl.co.uk/poly-ml.html">Poly/ML</a> is a
|
|
wenzelm@3274
|
61 |
commercial product and costs money, but it is stable and efficient. It
|
|
wenzelm@3274
|
62 |
requires relatively little memory (starting at about 16MB) and disk
|
|
wenzelm@4582
|
63 |
space (about 60MB for all distributed object logics).

<a href="http://www.harlequin.com/products/ads/ml/">MLWorks</a> is a
|
|
wenzelm@4431
|
68 |
commercial ML programming environment. Isabelle on MLWorks should be
|
|
wenzelm@4431
|
69 |
still considered experimental!

<h2>Installation</h2>
|
|
wenzelm@3259
|
75 |
|
|
wenzelm@3259
|
76 |
See file <tt>INSTALL</tt> in the Isabelle sources on how to build the
|
|
wenzelm@3259
|
77 |
system. Further background information may be found in the
|
|
wenzelm@3259
|
78 |
<em>Isabelle System Manual</em>, distributed as <tt>dvi</tt> with the
|
|
wenzelm@3259

<h2>Interfaces</h2>
|
|
wenzelm@3306
|
83 |
|
|
wenzelm@3306
|
84 |
The distribution includes only a very primitive interface based on
|
|
wenzelm@3306
|
85 |
ordinary terminal sessions.<p>

David Aspinall is a more elaborate interface for Isabelle. It runs
|
|
wenzelm@4481
|
89 |
under recent versions of GNU Emacs and XEmacs, the latter being
|
|
wenzelm@4481
|
90 |
recommended. It's useful to both novices and experts.
