In the case of Linux, there is a tarball file that you can decompress in whatever directory you like, an install script can then be executed to install everything. For Windows, simply run the setup program that is included and follow the directions. For Mac OS X you will simply open the .dmg file and let the OS go through it's normal steps. Packaging software for Linux is a real challenge, and we've spent a lot of time researching and testing methods to make this as clean as possible. What we have now are a choice of two files to deal with desktop anti-aliasing. You will need to install at least one of these on your system before you install the demo of whatever application you are going to test. This only applies for the Linux operating system. You can use the rpm or the tarball,the * is used in the file names to indicate that the rest of the file name is mutable and not applicable to the information you care about. You can either choose the RPM or the tarball: thekompany-support*.rpm thekompany-support*.tar.gz Documentation will be enhanced over time, the latest versions can be downloaded with your download key. The files are located in the 'GlobalDesktopFiles' which is found at http://www.smga3000.com/thekompany/GlobalDesktopFiles/ theKompany.com
