GAP runs on a large number of different operating systems. It behaves slightly different on each of those. This chapter describes the behaviour of GAP, the installation, and the options on some of those operating systems.
Currently it contains sections for UNIX (see GAP for UNIX), which runs on an ever increasing number of machines, for Windows95 (see GAP for Windows), which is one operating system for IBM PC compatibles and MacOS (see GAP for MacOS), which is the operating system on Apple Macintosh computers.
For other systems the section Porting GAP gives hints how to approach such a port.
Section The Documentation contains information about the manual, where to find and how to print it.
