3.2 Installation instructions

The `mosmake-x.y.tar.gz' tarball unpacks to a directory `mosmake-x.y' with several files in it. Copy all the files to a suitable subdirectory of your own project directory, and follow the instruction in 2.1 A Simple Example.

It only makes limited sense to install Mosmake centrally at a site, except as a source for copying into project directories. You can use Mosmake as installed in a central location, but if you distribute your code without a copy of Mosmake, your users will not be able to build it. So you might as well copy it to your project.

If you're concerned about space, you can remove the files `mosmake.dvi', `mosmake.info' and `mosmake.info-nnn'; they are formatted versions of this manual. A further saving could be obtained by also removing the source of the manual, which is `mosmake.texi', but doing so would be a disservice to people who want to play with change in your program, because the build process will be completely mysterious without documentation.
