1.4 Installation

Installing xml.hwp is straightforward and simple: Just copy the file xml.hwp for the platform of your choice to Hollywood's plugins directory. On all systems except on AmigaOS and compatibles, plugins must be stored in a directory named Plugins that is in the same directory as the main Hollywood program. On AmigaOS and compatible systems, plugins must be installed to LIBS:Hollywood instead. On macOS, the Plugins directory must be inside the Resources directory of the application bundle, i.e. inside the HollywoodInterpreter.app/Contents/Resources directory. Note that HollywoodInterpreter.app is stored inside the Hollywood.app application bundle itself, namely in Hollywood.app/Contents/Resources.

On Windows you should also copy the file xml.chm to the Docs directory of your Hollywood installation. Then you will be able to get online help by pressing F1 when the cursor is over a xml.hwp function in the Hollywood IDE.

On Linux and macOS copy the xml directory that is inside the Docs directory of xml.hwp's distribution archive to the Docs directory of your Hollywood installation. Note that on macOS the Docs directory is within the Hollywood.app application bundle, i.e. in Hollywood.app/Contents/Resources/Docs.
