Installation

On Windows:

Please run the installation program. This will create a program group called Anthemion Riffle x.y (or other name if you have chosen a different name). This folder can be accessed via the Start menu under Programs. The folder contains shortcuts to the program, help file, and Uninstall program.

You can uninstall Riffle either by double-clicking the Uninstall Riffle icon in the Riffle group, or by invoking the Windows Control Panel, double-clicking on Add/Remove Programs, and then choosing the Anthemion Riffle item.

On Linux:

Unarchive Riffle-x.yz-i386.tar.gz to a suitable location in your filesystem. A directory of the form Riffle-x.yz (where x.yz is the version number) will be created.

Add the location to your PATH and run the application with 'riffle'. You may wish to set the environment variable RIFFLEDIR so that Riffle can find its data files.

For example:

  % cd ~
  % tar xvfz Riffle-1.01.tar.gz
  % export RIFFLEDIR=`pwd`/Riffle-1.0
  % export PATH=$PATH:$RIFFLEDIR
  % riffle
If you don't want to change your PATH, you could place a script in a location already on your PATH, such as /usr/local/bin. For example:

  #!/bin/sh
  # Invokes Riffle
  export RIFFLEDIR=/home/mydir/Riffle-1.0
  $RIFFLEDIR/riffle $*

On Mac OS X:

Download Riffle-x.yz.dmg and click to unarchive the disk image. Copy the folder to a suitable location on your hard disk, and run the Riffle application contained in the folder. To uninstall, simple drag the folder to the trash can.
