SooSL-0.9.6 macOS for Silicon"  (128Mb) SooSL-0.9.6 macOS for Intel"  (141)

SooSL-0.9.6 for Linux  (158Mb)

Windows and macOS users:

Download the file for your operating system and double-click on it.
No need to uninstall any old versions of SooSL.
(Windows exception: If you want to install to a different location than your old version,
 then you will need to uninstall your old version first.)

For "silent" installation under Windows, run the installer in a command prompt window with either the "/SILENT" or "/VERYSILENT" command line parameter.
For more information about these command line parameters and others that may be useful, see: https://jrsoftware.org/ishelp/index.php?topic=setupcmdline

Linux users (Ubuntu and Debian) have two ways to install SooSL:

1. Setup access to the packages.sil.org repositories.
   (Wasta-Linux already has this access setup.)
   (Debian users may need to edit the SIL repository in "Software & Updates" to include "contrib":
   "http://packages.sil.org/debian trixie main contrib".)
2. Download the.deb file to the left for your system. Install using your favourite package manager, or in a terminal change to your download directory and type: "sudo apt install <<path_to_deb_file>>".

• Videos may not display when running SooSL under some virtual environments; it is best to run on a true Linux computer.
• First time Linux users: If you've never installed SooSL before, it "may" not start on your first attempt, but please try again, as it will probably run on your second try.

Installation instructions also found in README.

(For SooSL 0.9.4, 0.9.5 and 0.9.6. For older versions, see: "Older software and sources" below.)

All users:

This file is an example of a SooSL project for SooSL. We suggest you download and import it as an easy way to learn how to use SooSL before you try making a dictionary of your own.
Click on the "tools" icon (right-most icon at the top of the program window).
Use the "Import Project" icon to make it available for use with SooSL.
