Here follow brief instructions on how to start Agda in the Linux lab in the CS departement at Swansea University: Edit the file ~/.bashrc (if this file doesn't exist create it) and add the lines agda2localpath=/compsci/saturn/staff/csetzer/agda2/programsused/local/bin/ export PATH=${agda2localpath}:${PATH} Edit the file ~/.emacs (if this file doesn't exist create it) and add the lines (load "/compsci/saturn/staff/csetzer/emacs/agdainstall") Start a new shell or console. This will activate evaluation of ~/.bashrc. Start from there a new emacs (by typing in emacs & ) This will activate execution of ~/.emacs Now open a file with extension .agda e.g. ~/agda/myfirstagdaexample.agda Then emacs will switch to Agda mode and you can start. http://www.cs.swan.ac.uk/~csetzer/lectures/intertheo/07/index.html contains the notes from the course http://www.cs.swan.ac.uk/~csetzer/lectures/intertheo/07/agdalectureexamples/ contains the examples used in the lecture (there are only two short examples) If there are problems with the installation, please email me.
