# Installation

Installation of the Module should be pretty painless.

1. Check the source for hacks which may be necessary for your Platform. In the menu_initialise routine, we try to get some terminal characteristics direct from the terminal; there seem to be different methods for different platforms. Check which method works for you.

   The module has only been tested under Linux and the default is set for it; the other methods my be totally unnecessary now with Curses but I left these in from perlmenu.

2. Run perl Makefile.PL. This performs a few checks
3. Run make. This creates a tree ready for installation
4. Run demo. This demonstration script should run before the Module has been installed; use it as a test for now.
5. Run make install The Module should now be available for your own scripts.
