The Isabelle System Distribution
Version information
This is some unidentified repository version of Isabelle.
See the NEWS file in the distribution for details on user-relevant
changes.
Installation
Isabelle works on the three main platform families: Linux, Windows,
and Mac OS X.
Completely integrated bundles including the full Isabelle sources,
documentation, add-on tools and precompiled logic images for
several platforms are available from the Isabelle web page.
Some background information may be found in the Isabelle System
Manual, distributed with the sources (directory doc).
User interfaces
Isabelle/jEdit is an advanced Prover IDE based on jEdit and
Isabelle/Scala. It provides a metaphor of continuous proof
checking of a versioned collection of theory sources, with
instantaneous feedback in real-time and rich semantic markup
associated with the formal text.
The classic Isabelle user interface is Proof General by David
Aspinall and others. It is a generic Emacs interface for proof
assistants, including Isabelle. Its main feature is script
management, with stepwise proof scripting and partial locking of
the editor buffer.
