Manual

Two manuals are included in the distribution: the and the , which gives instructions on how to adapt Proof General to new systems.

For printing you can download:

The PostScript files are recommended over the PDF.

Note that both manuals (in HTML and Info formats) are included in the download. When running Proof General the manual is available from the "Proof General" menu. It should also appear in the system Info pages.

You can discuss Proof General with other users and receive announcements by joining our mailing list.
