Installation
============

Debian / Ubuntu
---------------
1. Download the latest stable .deb file from the [Downloads page][downloads].
2. Install the .deb file (either with GDebi or by running
    `dpkg -i presenter_X.Y_all.deb`)

Windows
-------
There is currently no installer for Presenter on Windows - help with this task
would be greatly appreciated.

1. You will need to install PyGTK first - there is a guide to doing this in the [PyGTK
    FAQ](http://faq.pygtk.org/index.py?file=faq21.001.htp&req=show).
2. Using the command line, run `python setup.py install`.
3. You should be able to run presenter by either:
   * running the `presenter` script
   * running presenter/\_\_init\_\_.py with Python
      (you may be able to do this from the context menu)

Linux (from source)
-------------------
1. Get the source (either from the [Downloads page][downloads]
    or from the Mercurial repository)
2. Install the required dependencies:
   * python >= 2.5
   * (optional) Distribute (or Setuptools)
   * (optional) python-distutils-extra
   * python-gtk2
   * python-gobject
   * (optional) python vte bindings
   * (optional) python evince bindings
   * (optional) gst-python 0.10
3. Install with `python setup.py install`.
    Note:
    * If you want a system-wide installation, this will need to be run by a
        user with administrative priviliges.
    * If you want a per-user installation, use Python 2.6 and use the `--user`
        flag.
