===============================================================================

   The current version of GvR was developed and tested on Debian
   GNU/Linux (Sarge), Windows XP Home/Pro, and Mac OS 10.3.
     
Prerequisites

   GvR requires Python and wxPython, preferably version 2.5.x.

GNU/Linux

   You want to download either the tarball or the debian package. If you
   downloaded the .deb, simply dpkg -i it as root, and you will be done.

   If you download the tarball, untar it in your home directory (tar xzvf
   filename). This will create a gvr directory. From within that
   directory, run setup as root. This will set up the GvR environment for
   you.

   Users can then start GvR by typing gvr at the command prompt. The
   first time it is run it will notify the user that a GvR directory will
   be created in their home directory.

Mac OS X

   Download the .tgz file for GNU/Linux users, or the .zip file for
   Windows users and extract it. Don't bother running setup.py; to use
   GvR, double-click on gvr.py if you have the file association set in
   Finder.

   If that doesn't work, open up a Terminal, navigate to the GvR
   directory, and type in pythonw gvr.py.

Windows

   You can either download a Win32 installer if you do not have Python,
   or you can download a zip file with the GvR source. After unzipping or
   installing the application, just run the gvr.py file to start the
   program. Double-clicking on it may also work, if you have a file
   association set up.

Latest CVS source

   Warning: sources in cvs may be unstable or not working, and are
   certainly not tested. If you can help it, stick to the release
   versions.

   This project's SourceForge.net CVS repository can be checked out
   through anonymous (pserver) CVS with the following instruction set.
   When prompted for a password for anonymous, simply press the Enter
   key.

   cvs -d:pserver:anonymous@cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/gvr login

   cvs -z3 -d:pserver:anonymous@cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/gvr co GvR

   Updates from within the module's directory do not need the -d
   parameter.
