JavaCC Installation

# JavaCC [tm]: Installation Notes

The download should have placed into your file system either a ZIP or GZIP file containing the JavaCC software.

Depending on which you downloaded, you should go to the directory where the file was installed and type something like:

> `unzip javacc-3.2.zip`

> or

> `gunzip javacc-3.2.tar.gz`
> `tar xvf javacc-3.2.tar`

That completes your installation.

Once you have completed installation, add the `bin` directory within the JavaCC installation to your path. The `javacc`, `jjtree`, and `jjdoc` invocation scripts/executables reside in this directory.

You can get started quickly by looking at the examples and the associated README files in the `examples` directory under the installation directory. For additional information consult the documentation index and the following release notes:

- JavaCC release notes
- JJTree release notes
- JJDoc release notes

Additional help is available on the JavaCC mailing list.
