So the standard method is to unpack the archive into the <code>pkg</code> directory of your <font face="Gill Sans,Helvetica,Arial">GAP</font> distribution. This will create an <code>fga</code> subdirectory. <p> For other non-standard options please see Chapter <a href="../../../doc/htm/ref/CHAP074.htm#SECT001">Installing a GAP Package</a> in the <font face="Gill Sans,Helvetica,Arial">GAP</font> Reference Manual. <p> <p> <h2><a name="SECT002">3.2 Loading the FGA package</a></h2> <p><p> <a name = "I2"></a> The <font face="Gill Sans,Helvetica,Arial">FGA</font> package is configured to autoload, so its functionality is usually available once <font face="Gill Sans,Helvetica,Arial">GAP</font> is started. <p> If <font face="Gill Sans,Helvetica,Arial">GAP</font> does not autoload, you can request the package with the <code>LoadPackage</code> command like this: <p> <pre> gap> LoadPackage( "fga" ); ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Loading FGA 1.1 (Free Group Algorithms) by Christian Sievers (c.sievers@tu-bs.de). ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- true </pre> <p> You will not see the banner if <font face="Gill Sans,Helvetica,Arial">FGA</font> has already been loaded. <p> The <code>LoadPackage</code> command and ways to disable autoloading are described in Section <a href="../../../doc/htm/ref/CHAP074.htm#SECT002">Loading a GAP Package</a> in the <font face="Gill Sans,Helvetica,Arial">GAP</font> Reference Manual. <p> <p> [<a href = "chapters.htm">Up</a>] [<a href ="CHAP002.htm">Previous</a>] [<a href = "theindex.htm">Index</a>] <P> <address>FGA manual<br>May 2005 </address></body></html>
