| 12 | INSTALLING Qt
|
|---|
| 13 |
|
|---|
| 14 | On Windows and Mac OS X, if you want to install the precompiled binary
|
|---|
| 15 | packages, simply launch the package and follow the instructions in the
|
|---|
| 16 | installation wizard.
|
|---|
| 17 |
|
|---|
| 18 | On Mac OS X, the binary package requires Mac OS X 10.4.x (Tiger) or
|
|---|
| 19 | later and GCC 4.0.1 to develop applications. Its applications will run
|
|---|
| 20 | on Mac OS X 10.3.9 and above.
|
|---|
| 21 |
|
|---|
| 22 | If you have a source package (a .tar.gz, .tar.bz2, or .zip file),
|
|---|
| 23 | follow the instructions in the INSTALL file.

| 26 | DEMOS AND EXAMPLES
|
|---|
| 27 |
|
|---|
| 28 | Once Qt is installed, we suggest that you take a look at the demos and
|
|---|
| 29 | examples to see Qt in action. Run the Qt Examples and Demos either by
|
|---|
| 30 | typing 'qtdemo' on the command line or through the desktop's Start
|
|---|
| 31 | menu. On Mac OS X, you can find it in /Developers/Applications/Qt.

| 34 | REFERENCE DOCUMENTATION
|
|---|
| 35 |
|
|---|
| 36 | The Qt reference documentation is available locally in Qt's doc/html
|
|---|
| 37 | directory. You can use Qt Assistant to view it; to launch Assistant,
|
|---|
| 38 | type 'assistant' on the command line or use the Start menu. On Mac OS
|
|---|
| 39 | X, you can find it in /Developer/Applications/Qt. The latest
