System requirements
Phenote runs on most modern platforms, but requires Java 1.5 (aka Java 5) or later. An appropriate Java is pre-installed with Mac OS X 10.4 or newer (Phenote cannot run on Mac OS X 10.3). For Windows, you can download the latest Java from http://www.java.com/. If you're running Linux, please consult your system documentation.
Installation
Phenote can be downloaded from the OBO Sourceforge project site. There are separate downloads available for Mac and Windows, as well as a download of the application source code. Download the appropriate zip file for your platform.
- Mac: Double-click the downloaded file to unzip it. You should see the application, "Phenote.app". Drag it anywhere you like to install. Double-click the application to launch Phenote.
- Windows: Double-click the downloaded file. Click on "Extract all files" in the resulting window. Use the Extraction Wizard to put the Phenote folder wherever you want. Launch Phenote by double-clicking "Phenote.bat" inside the Phenote folder. It will take several seconds for the Phenote window to appear. Do not attempt to run Phenote from "inside" the zip file - it will not work properly without first extracting the files to another folder.
- Linux/Unix: forthcoming
