    10 Installation
    11 
    12    Isabelle works on the three main platform families: Linux, Windows,
    13    and Mac OS X.  The application bundles from the Isabelle web page
    14    include sources, documentation, and add-on tools for all supported
    15    platforms.
    16 
    17    Some technical background information may be found in the Isabelle
    18    System Manual (directory doc).

    20 User interfaces
    21 
    22    Isabelle/jEdit is an advanced Prover IDE based on jEdit and
    23    Isabelle/Scala.  It provides a metaphor of continuous proof
    24    checking of a versioned collection of theory sources, with
    25    instantaneous feedback in real-time and rich semantic markup
    26    associated with the formal text.
    27 
    28    The classic Isabelle user interface is Proof General by David
    29    Aspinall and others.  It is a generic Emacs interface for proof
    30    assistants, including Isabelle.  Its main feature is script
    31    management, with stepwise proof scripting and partial locking of
    32    the editor buffer.
