Installation of Intergrams

This web page marks the first Internet release of Intergrams, in a cross-platform version that should run on a wide variety of systems, including Windows, Macintosh, and Linux. Intergrams was originally published by Eastgate Systems, but the rights have been returned to the author. The version available here is nearly identical in function to the original. It is available in two packagings: “all-in-one” and “image file”. Most readers will probably want to download the all-in-one version. This is a single zip file, which will run on Windows, Macintosh, and Linux. The image file is a Squeak image which will run on any system that already has a Squeak virtual machine installed (compatible with Squeak 4.3 or later). Squeak is open source software licensed under the Apache and MIT licenses.

Intergrams does not currently “play” in the browser. However, installation is quite simple, and does not have any side-effects, such as registry settings on Windows.

Installation Instructions:

1. Download the file Intergrams.zip (21M).

2. Unzip to a directory of your choice.

3. What you do from here depends on your Operating System:

Windows:
You should have a folder called Intergrams.app in the directory into which you unzipped Intergrams.zip. Double-click the icon for this folder. You should now have an icon for

squeak.exe

Double-click this icon. Intergrams should launch.

Macintosh: (OS X)
You should have an icon called Intergrams in the folder where you unzipped Intergrams.zip. Double-click this icon. Intergrams should launch.

Linux:
Change to the directory into which you unzipped Intergrams.zip. You should have a directory there called Intergrams.app. Change to this directory. Execute

squeak.sh

(preferably in the background). Intergrams should launch.


In case of trouble, please E-mail me.

Image File (for those who already have Squeak installed):


Download and unzip the file Intergrams.image.zip and invoke your Squeak VM with the resulting image as argument.
