README for Kirq (standalone version)
====================================

The standalone version of Kirq (KirqST) bundles together the Kirq
application and all of its dependencies, including the Python
interpreter, to provide a single installation package.  The user does
not need to install Python or any other programs to run KirqST
standalone.

KirqST does not include acq.  If you wish to install acq, download the
combined Kirq and acq source package from http://grundrisse.org/qca/.

KirqST is built using PyInstaller (http://www.pyinstaller.org/).


INSTALLATION

    Windows: Unzip the zipfile and open the folder.  The executable is
    named Kirq.exe.

    OS X: Double-click the zipfile to unpack the application bundle.
    Double-click the bundle to run Kirq.

    Linux: Unpack the tarball and do a "make install" as root.  You
    can change the installation paths by editing the Makefile.  By
    default, the Kirq binary will be symlinked to /usr/local/bin/kirq.


UNINSTALLATION

    Windows: Delete the application folder.
