<h2>3.0 Fossil - The Program</h2>

Fossil is software.  The implementation of Fossil is in the form
of a single executable named "fossil" (or "fossil.exe" on Windows).
To install Fossil on your system,
all you have to do is obtain a copy of this one executable file (either
by downloading a
<a href="http://www.fossil-scm.org/download.html">pre-compiled version</a>
or [./build.wiki | compiling it yourself]) and then
putting that file somewhere on your PATH.

Fossil is completely self-contained.  It is not necessary to
install any other software in order to use Fossil.  You do <u>not</u> need
CVS, gzip, diff, rsync, Python, Perl, Tcl, Java, apache, PostgreSQL, MySQL,
SQLite, patch, or any similar software on your system in order to use

<title>The Fossil Build Process</title>

<h1>1.0 Introduction</h1>

The build process for Fossil is tricky in that the source code
needs to be processed by three different preprocessor programs
before it is compiled.  Most users will download a
[http://www.fossil-scm.org/download.html | precompiled binary]
so this is of no consequence to them, and even those who
want to compile the code themselves can use one of the
[./build.wiki | existing makefiles].
So must people do not need to be concerned with the
build complexities of Fossil.  But hard-core developers who desire
a deep understanding of how Fossil is put together can benefit
from reviewing this article.
