FreeWRL/FreeX3D OSX Install

Basic Install

Image	Description
	When you download the "Disc Image", it will get mounted by the Finder, and will put you into the directory on the FreeWRL "Disc Image".
	Double click on the open box, with the title "FreeWRL-UniversalBinary". When this opens, you will get this "Welcome to the Installer" message. Click the "Continue" button if you wish to proceed.
	I think that it is best to keep to the standard install location; so just click on the "Install" button here.
	So FreeWRL installs some libraries, and some Application area files. In order to write the libraries, it needs your permission. Your account name will be here, you will need your account password to proceed. If you want to see what files are written, please ask us; the distribution keeps changing so we are not going to put it on-line every time, but rest assured, if you want to know what is actually installed where, just ask us.
	You know what? When you reach this screen, the software is installed.

Assigning Types

We are trying to ensure that the finder knows the Icon types and the "file" types to associate with FreeWRL. In the case where you have a file that is not automatically associated with FreeWRL, and you wish it to be, follow this.

Image	Description
	We have a file that we want to open with FreeWRL. It is the one on the top left...
	Single click it; it will become highlighted. (highlit?)
	Type the two keys "Command" and "I" at the same time (much as you would with the "Shift" key to get a capital letter. This screen will appear.
	Click on the "Open With" pulldown menu, to get a list of applications. See the FreeWRL directory? Open it.
	FreeWRL is greyed out. It is because it is not an Apple product; click on the "Enable" and select "All Applications".
	There it is. Click the FreeWRL icon to highlight it.
	Click on the "Add". In the information window (the long skinny one, above) you can select the "Change All..." button; you will most likely wish to do this.
