Amaya Binary Releases

Last Release date: 3 July 2009

Amaya is intended to be a comprehensive client environment for testing and evaluating new proposals for Web standards and formats. A large part of the intended features of Amaya are implemented in this release, but some of them are not complete yet.

Check out the list of new features.

The Amaya binary distribution is available for PC Linux, Windows (NT, XP, 2000) and Mac OS X. Users having other architectures are expected to compile the Amaya source code.

Release schedule

There are about three Amaya releases a year. Between each major release, we may generate patch releases or snapshots which fix important bugs.

Each time a new release is available, an email is sent to the www-amaya mailing list.

Getting the binary distribution

The binary distribution is available for a set of Windows, Linux and Mac OS X platforms.

Installing Amaya

Please follow the directions given in the Unix and Windows installation notes.

Further documentation is provided inside the distribution tar file and in the Amaya on-line documentation page.

How to change the dialogue language

By default Amaya works with an English dialogue. Other languages are supported:

• French, German, Spanish, Italian, Hungarian, Georgian, Norwegian, Portuguese, Russian, Japanese, Chinese, Finnish, Dutch, Slovak, Ukrainian.
• The in-line documentation is available in French and English. The Dutch version is in progress.

Users can change the dialogue language through the configuration menu Preferences/General (fr for French, de for German, es for Spanish, pt for Portuguese, it for Italian, and fi for Finnish).

Installing dictionaries

Amaya includes a spell-checker. By default French and English dictionaries are included in the distribution. If your distribution doesn't include the dictionary you want (see Amaya/dicopar/*.dic), you must download and install it. These dictionaries are not complete, so the spell-checker could report spelling errors just because the dictionary doesn't include these words.
