     1 ISABELLE -- INSTRUCTIONS FOR UNPACKING THE EMAIL DISTRIBUTION 
       
     2 
       
     3 The Isabelle email distribution consists of about 8 installments, each
       
     4 small enough to send by electronic mail.  The files are called Isabelle.aa,
       
     5 Isabelle.ab, ....  They have been generated by tar, compress, uuencode, and
       
     6 split, and are packed for email using shar.  To unpack the files, perform
       
     7 the following steps:
       
     8 
       
     9 STEP 1.  Create a new directory to hold Isabelle and move to that
       
    10 directory (the name of the directory does not matter):
       
    11 
       
    12 	mkdir Isabelle;  cd Isabelle
       
    13 
       
    14 STEP 2.  Put each message into a separate file and pipe it through unshar.
       
    15 (If you don't have unshar, remove the header lines generated by the mail
       
    16 system and submit the file to sh.)
       
    17 
       
    18 STEP 3.  Concatenate the files into one file using the command
       
    19 
       
    20 	cat Isabelle.?? > 92.tar.Z.uu
       
    21 
       
    22 STEP 4.  Undo the uuencode operation using the command
       
    23 
       
    24 	uudecode 92.tar.Z.uu
       
    25 
       
    26 STEP 5.  You should now have a file 92.tar.Z; uncompress and unpack it using...
       
    27 
       
    28    	uncompress -c 92.tar.Z | tar xf -
       
    29 
       
    30 STEP 6.  You should now have a complete Isabelle directory, called 92.  You
       
    31 may now tidy up by executing
       
    32 
       
    33 	rm Isabelle.?? *.hdr 92.tar.Z.uu 92.tar.Z
       
    34 
       
    35 Consult the file 92/README for information on compiling Isabelle.
