How to use Fink to install a precompiled, optimized, universal CNS binary

Put the file cns-binary.info into the directory

/sw/fink/dists/local/main/finkinfo

Issue the install command

fink -y install cns-binary


Be sure you have a line like this in your shell startup file

source /sw/bin/init.sh

or

source /sw/bin/init.csh

in your shell startup file of choice.

Open a new terminal session, and issue the command

cns

Get the Camino web browser

cns_edit and cns_web work best with the Camino web browser, although any in the Mozilla class are ok. Safari will work, but saving edited files is annoying.

You do not need to do anything else

Please do not install any other scripts or startup files. The fink installation is 100% self-contained. If it doesn't work, it is a bug, so please tell me.
