The following installation instructions are for Unix, although the package should work as well with any other operating system.
To install the SymbCompCC package, unpack the archive file, which should have a name of the form SymbCompCC-XXX.tar.gz for some version number XXX, by typing
gunzip SymbCompCC-<XXX>.tar.gz tar -xvf SymbCompCC-<XXX>.tar
in the pkg directory of your version of GAP 4, or in a directory named pkg (e.g. in your home directory). (The only essential difference when installing SymbCompCC in a pkg directory different from the GAP 4 home directory is that one must start GAP with the -l switch, e.g. if your private pkg directory is a subdirectory of mygap in your home directory you might type:
gap -l ";<myhomedir>/mygap"
where myhomedir is the path to your home directory, which may be replaced by a tilde. The empty path before the semicolon is filled in by the default path of the GAP 4 home directory.)
To use the SymbCompCC package you have to request it explicitly. This is done by calling
gap> LoadPackage("SymbCompCC"); true
The LoadPackage command is described in Section LoadPackage (Reference: LoadPackage) in the GAP Reference Manual.
If you want to load the SymbCompCC package by default, you can put the LoadPackage command into your gaprc file (see Section Reference: The gaprc file in the GAP Reference Manual).
