		<section name="Supported Platforms">
			<ul>
				<li> Colt should happily run on any Unix and any Windows with java-1.2.x or higher.
					Currently, we know it runs at least on Linux, Solaris, MacOSX and Windows 2000 or higher.
				</li>
			</ul>
		</section>
		
		<section name="Download and Decompress Files">
			<ul>
				<li> Download <code>colt-{version}.(tar.gz, zip)</code> from <a href="http://dsd.lbl.gov/~hoschek/colt-download">here</a>.
				Releases can be installed via a tar.gz file (Unix) or zip file (Windows).
				</li>
				<blockquote>
					<warning name="Warning">
						<ul>
							<li> Because of a bug in Solaris tar, Solaris users should use <a
									href="http://www.mysql.com/downloads/os-solaris.html">gnu
								tar</a> to unpack archives. </li>
							<li> Due too an obscure bug, Winzip and possibly other Windows
								decompression tools may miss empty directories. Consequently, use
								the .zip download file on Windows, and DO NOT decompress tar[.gz]
								files on Windows. </li>
						</ul>
					</warning>
				</blockquote>
				<li>Decompress the file into any convenient directory (the software is relocatable)</li>
				<blockquote> In the examples below we assume as installation directory
<pre class="source">
/opt/colt                         (Unix)
c:\colt                           (Windows) 
</pre>
					If you choose to install into an alternative location (e.g. <code>/usr/local,
						$HOME, d:\apps</code>) then substitute the paths used in examples on this
					website accordingly.
<pre class="source">
cd /opt	 
tar -zxvf colt-{version}.tar.gz   (Unix)
Winzip colt-{version}.zip         (Windows)
</pre>
					This will create the directory tree <code>/opt/colt/</code> (Unix) or
					<code>c:\colt</code> (Windows).
				</blockquote>

<li>Add colt.jar and concurrent.jar to your CLASSPATH</li>
<blockquote>
<pre class="source">
export CLASSPATH=/opt/colt/lib/colt.jar:/opt/colt/lib/concurrent.jar:$CLASSPATH  (on Unix bash style)
set CLASSPATH=c:\colt\lib\colt.jar;c:\colt\lib\concurrent.jar;%CLASSPATH%        (on Windows)
</pre>
</blockquote>
			</ul>
		</section>

<section name="Deinstallation">
			<ul>
				<li>If you ever want to uninstall the software, type</li>
<blockquote>
<pre class="source">
rm -fr /opt/colt                  (Unix)
rmdir c:\colt /s/q                (Windows)
</pre>
