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.
