Installation
|
| 10 |
|
| 11 |
Currency is written in Python, so requires the Python runtime resources. You
|
| 12 |
can get this from
|
| 13 |
|
| 14 |
http://www.schwertberger.de/
|
| 15 |
|
| 16 |
(the 'Binaries, Libraries' archive is sufficient). Install it as described in
|
| 17 |
the archive. You are now ready to run Currency.
