BCT comes as a stand-alone .exe installer for Windows and as a tarball for Linux. BCT was tested and validated on Fedora 14, which will be the only supported Linux distribution.
The Release package when unzipped will contain the following:
Note
Please make sure you chose the right package to match your system to download and install. Also, the value of <X> will change with each release.
The Windows Installer will copy files to:
C:\Program Files (x86)\BCT
by default. The Windows UAC will prompt you to grant permission for the installer to start.
When BCT is run for the first time and the user accepts the End User License Agreement, the following files are created in current user's home directory (C:\Users\<user id> in Windows and /home/<user id> in Linux):
- .bctrc
- .bctstyle
- bct.log
Copy the BCT tar.gz file to a local directory.
From the console terminal, navigate to the folder that contains the BCT tar.gz file and issue the following command:
Note
The name of the file will change with each release.
The installation extracts a binary executable bct and two folders: help and xrc. Both are necessary for BCT to work.
Run the BCT program by issuing:
>./bct
