# Installing GHC
To compile Pandoc, you'll need [GHC] version 6.4 or greater.
If you don't have GHC already, you can get it from the
[GHC Download] page.
[GHC]: http://www.haskell.org/ghc/
[GHC Download]: http://www.haskell.org/ghc/download.html
You'll also need standard build tools: GNU `make`, `sed`, `bash`, and `perl`.
These are standard on unix systems (including MacOS X). If you're
using Windows, you can install [Cygwin].

# Installing Pandoc
1. Change to the directory containing the Pandoc distribution.
2. Compile:
make
3. See if it worked (optional, but recommended):
make test
4. Install:
make install
Note: This installs `pandoc`, together with its wrappers and
documentation, into the `/usr/local` directory, which requires root
privileges. If you don't have root privileges or would prefer to
install `pandoc` and the associated shell scripts into your `~/bin`
directory, type this instead:
PREFIX=~ make install-exec
5. Install everthing, including Haskell libraries and library documentation
(optional):
make install-all
# Removing Pandoc
Each of the installation steps described above can be reversed:
make uninstall
PREFIX=~ make uninstall-exec
make uninstall-all
