Yorick Download Page
The latest release of yorick is 1.5; the source code including
all the latest patches as a gzipped
tar file, extension .tgz. For MacIntosh MacOS 8 or 9, the latest
functioning release is 1.4. For MacOS X, install XDarwin, and use the UNIX version of
yorick-1.5.
Note that the UNIX gzip and tar archiving programs are available
without charge for both MS Windows (PowerArchiver
6.1) and MacOS 8 or 9 (
MacGzip ,
suntar). On a UNIX platform, you can unpack a .tgz file with a
command like this:
gzip -dc yorick-1.5.07.tgz | tar xvf -
There are a few places at this site you cannot yet reach from these
HTML documents. Here is a link to the top level
directory so you can explore the whole tree.
Source distributions
- yorick-1.5.07.tgz
latest yorick source distribution
- yorick-doc.tgz
complete HTML, PDF, and TeXinfo documentation.
This tarball includes all the yorick documentation at this website,
prebuilt from the source and scripts in the tarball itself.
After you unpack the source distribution, detailed build instructions
for UNIX (or MacOS X) are contained in the file yorick-1.5/README.
For MS Windows, look in the yorick-1.5/win directory.
Yorick configures itself and compiles on essentially every modern
flavor of UNIX, including Linux, FreeBSD, MacOS X, IBM AIX, Sun
Solaris, Compaq OSF, SGI Irix, and HPUX. The only requirements are an
ANSI C compiler (such as gcc) and the X Window System (such as
XFree86). Additionally, as of 1.5.07, yorick compiles under MSVC++ on
MS Windows machines.
Here are the final yorick-1.4 source distributions. These are
obsolete, except for the MacIntosh distribution, which is the only
version of yorick that will ever run under MacOS 8 or 9.
Linux, UNIX, and MacOS X
Here is a directory where various other files
relating to Linux, UNIX, and MacOS X yorick releases are archived.
Note that there is a perl script called rpm2cpio which allows you to
unpack rpm files on any UNIX platform. Similarly, .deb files may be
unpacked anywhere using the UNIX ar utility.
The binary distributions include complete documentation in the
Y_SITE/doc directory. However, if you want to install this complete
website locally with a package manager, you can use one of these
complete documentation distributions:
