Windows

Follow the instructions at http://phix.x10.mx/download.php

Linux

  • download and copy Phix files to some "phix" folder
  • copy essential files to some "bin" folder

Download Phix

Visit http://phix.x10.mx/download.php

You need three files:

  • phix.0.7.7.1.zip
  • phix.0.7.7.2.zip
  • p32 or p64 (match the bits of your computer)

phix Folder

  • Make a phix folder. The suggested location is:
    /home/user/phix
  • Open the .zip files with the Archive Manager and Extract the files to /home/user/phix
  • Copy p32 (or p64) to /home/user/phix

Install

Copy the essential Phix files to a "bin" folder.

Folder Comments
/usr/bin may be crowded
/usr/local/bin a good choice
/home/bin available on some Puppy Linux
  • copy p32 or p64 to /usr/local/bin
  • rename to "p"
  • change "p" permissions to "executable" or "allow running as a program"
  • copy the /home/user/phix/builtins folder
    to /usr/local/bin

This is enough to run console programs in a terminal.

still needed

  • install iup binary runtime
  • install gGUI files

What you get

  • p will run from any open terminal
  • you can compile p.exw only from the "phix" folder
  • you can run demo programs
  • Warning: many of the demo programs are Windows only

Test Phix

In the /home/user/phix folder open a terminal and test the interpreter:

$ p -test 

You can now explore the demo programs in the /home/user/phix folder.


thanks Greg
