Installation of the ARS Interpreter

1. download `arsc.tar.gz' using the URL: https://www.aplusplus.net/app/download.html
   
2. unpack `arsc.tar.gz' by keying in: 'tar -xvzf appc.tar.gz'.
3. change to the directory `arsc'. This directory contains the precompiled version of the interpreter having the name `appc.exe'.
   

   If the precompiled binary runs the installation is finished, otherwise the interpreter has to be recompiled.

4. download `gc6.3.tar.gz' using the URL specified above.
   
5. unpack `gc6.3.tar.gz' by keying in: 'tar -xvzf gc6.3.tar.gz'.
6. change into the directory `gc6.3'.
7. configure the garbage collector: './configure'.
8. compile the package: 'make'.
9. install the garbage collector by keying in: 'make install'.
10. change into the directory which contains the pre-compiled version of the interpreter.
11. compile the interpreter: 'make'.
12. test the function of the installed interpreter:
    
    

    ./arscint
    ARS-EVAL-> (load "test.ars")
      ..........
    ARS-EVAL-> (quit)
    

    
    
13. save the interpreter (`arscint.exe') into the target directory.
