+### Direct Installation (Ubuntu version)
+
+--- Gtkwave ---
+
+gtkwave is good in the Universe repository. If you've already got that
+linked in your /etc/apt/sources.list file, then installation is as
+simple as:
+
+` sudo apt-get install gtkwave`
+
+--- Compiling icarus verilog ---
+
+Icarus verilog, on the other hand, is buggy in the Jaunty repository. So
+you'll want to compile it by hand.
+
+- Fetch the .tar.gz file:
+
+` wget `[`ftp://ftp.icarus.com/pub/eda/verilog/snapshots/verilog-20090923.tar.gz`](ftp://ftp.icarus.com/pub/eda/verilog/snapshots/verilog-20090923.tar.gz)
+` tar xvzf verilog-20090923.tar.gz`
+` cd verilog-20090923`
+
+- Make sure you have the necessary compile tools:
+
+` sudo apt-get install build-essential flex bison g++`
+
+- Compile and install:
+
+` ./configure `
+` make`
+` sudo make install   `
+
+- Go get a cup of tea after you type "make", because compiling takes a
+  while. But when you get back, you should be good to go. Copy William's
+  makefile into your code directory and get to work. Now you have your
+  usual development tools at your fingertips. (Emacs and Gedit have
+  sweet colorization modes for verilog.)
+
+### Direct Installation (Mac OSX Version)
+
+Spartan instructions follow...
+
+- Install XCode tools from developer.apple.com
+- Install macports from macports.org. I don't know how macports plays
+  with fink, so be wary if your using fink.
+- Install Icarus verilog with macports
+
+<!-- -->
+
+    sudo port install iverilog
+
+- Install GTKWave with macports. This will actually take a while on a
+  fresh install of macports, so go and watch a tv show.
+
+<!-- -->
+
+    sudo port install gtkwave
+
+- You can now launch iverilog, vvp and gtkwave from the command line,
+  and use the makefile provided with the workshop.
