This file documents how to use the binary distribution packages built by ImageMagick Studio LLC, and found in the Wizard's Toolkit 'binaries' subdirectory of Wizard's Toolkit ftp sites. Those who want to build the Wizard's Toolkit from source code should refer to the file README.txt in the Wizard's Toolkit source package or http://www.wizards-toolkit.org/WizardsToolkit/script/install-source.php on the web. Unix/Linux/Darwin/Cygwin/MinGW Install: Download the appropriate binary from ftp://ftp.wizards-toolkit.org/pub/WizardsToolkit/binaries Create (or choose) a directory to install the package into and change to that directory, for example: cd $HOME Extract the contents of the package using the command gzip -dc /path/to/package.tar.gz | tar -xf - If the 'bin' subdirectory of the extracted package is not already in your executable search path, add it to your PATH environment variable. For example export PATH; PATH="$HOME/WizardsToolkit-1.0.4/bin:$PATH" Set the WIZARD_HOME environment variable to the path where you extracted the Wizard's Toolkit files. For example export WIZARD_HOME="$HOME/WizardsToolkit-1.0.4" On Linux and Solaris machines set the LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable: export LD_LIBRARY_PATH="$HOME/WizardsToolkit-1.0.4/lib" On Mac OS X (Darwin) machines set the DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable: export DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH="$HOME/WizardsToolkit-1.0.4/lib" Additional Information Environment Variables: In addition to the WIZARD_HOME environment variable defined above, you may find these variables useful: WIZARD_TMPDIR path to store temporary files LD_LIBRARY_PATH path to libWizard.so and other libraries Configuration Files The Wizard's Toolkit depends on an number of external configuration files which include configure.xml and log.xml. The Wizard's Toolkit searches for configuration files in the following order, and loads them if found: $WIZARD_CONFIGURE_PATH $WIZARD_HOME/lib/WizardsToolkit-1.0.4/config $WIZARD_HOME/share/WizardsToolkit-1.0.4/config $HOME/.wizard/ /lib/WizardsToolkit-1.0.4/ / XP, Win2K, WinME, NT, Win98, Win95 Install: Download ftp://ftp.wizards-toolkit.org/pub/WizardsToolkit/binaries/WizardsToolkit-1.0.4-windows-dll.exe and execute it (or "open" it from your browser) to start the installation program.
