To install the binary distribution of SAL 2.0,
you just need to execute the following command:
         
       % ./install.sh

Notes:

1. Java.

The SAL parser is written in Java, so you need to have Java running 
before you can use SAL.  The SAL installation script checks for Java.
Many RedHat installations have something called kaffe masquerading as
Java.  This may cause the SAL parser to produce the following message
(many times).

  Warning: Minor version number mismatch.

This seems harmless.  Older versions of the Sun JRE (Java Runtime
Environment) may produce similar messages.  If you wish to avoid these
messages, install the latest JRE from Sun and delete the other
versions.

2.  ICS

If you already have a version of ICS installed (do "which ics") you
should delete it.  SAL installs a current version of ICS in its bin
directory.  If you later wish to install a new version of ICS, it's
simplest to place it there.  Otherwise, be careful about your path, or
put a suitable command in your ~/.salrc file.  SAL can use any
recent ICS. The file doc/README.ics contains further information.
